Last Friday, I went with my brother to Walking With Dinosaurs- The Live Experience at Toyota Center. I had no problem going, it looked like a neat little show that he would enjoy. However, I was really surprised. It was a PHENOMENAL production. That is really the only word I can use to describe it.

The show went like this: There was someone playing the role of a paleontologist, and we (the whole of Toyota Center) traveled with him back in time and then followed the dinosaurs through the different periods of time. The dinosaurs were amazing! They really did look real! The smaller ones were people in the suits controlling the movements and sounds, and the larger ones were animatronics. Incredible!

I have to again say "THANK YOU!" to Lanny, it was his feature report last Thursday morning that brought this production to our attention. My brother loves dinosaurs and had no idea that this existed or was in town. He didn't have a clue as to where I was taking him until we were walking down Polk Street towards the Toyota Center and I showed him the tickets. As soon as my mum and I saw Lanny's report on the morning news, we were on the web buying tickets. THANKS AGAIN LANNY!!

Watch Lanny's report here.

I took plenty of video from the production. It's a really good show! If you decide you want to see it in person, you'll have to get on a plane and fly to Charleston, South Carolina as that is the current stop for the show's North American Tour.

Video is approximately 36 minutes long. Clear some time before viewing! You won't want to stop partway through! Enjoy!
