Work. Vacation.

Last week we went to the Carnival Conquest to do some maintenance on the "Deja" show. It was a very productive trip , long overdue. We restructured the show and fixed up all the costumes. Our illusion builder Bill came with us as well, making sure the props are safe and in good working order. Despite all the hard work and shitty cabin, we had a blast. We got to meet an amazingly talented cast and crew (special thanks to Tammy & Bryon), and every night we shared cool magic stories with Bill over some great dinners. It was the closest thing to a vacation I've had in a long time, and the show is now better than ever.

Now, back to the grind...


Here are a few pictures from the Conquest trip:
Notice the helicoptor, there was a medial emergency and they had to fly out one of the passengers:
