Thanks for the details, Katie! You are making me very envious! I was there once, for 4 days, and have been dying to go back. We saw "Mystere". Don't the Cirque shows make you actually want to run away and join the circus?? At the very least, they make you want to stay committed to your workouts!! You sound like you had a blast! Great to hear! How did you find your separation from DD? Were you too busy having fun to worry very much?
Jes - DD cracks me up, too! The other day she asked me if Cathe was a real person. "Good question," I thought. But I answered, "Yes, she is. But she lives really far away from us, so that's why I do her dvd workouts." So Paris asked me if we could go visit her, to which I replied that I would indeed love to go visit her some day and do a workout in her gym with her. Well, then Paris got all stressed out that we were going to move far away and she wouldn't live in this house anymore! So then I had to calm down my over-anxious four year old while simultaneously doing plie squats with a heavy barbell. Argh! Kids!
Wendymin - I think you're going to love the Body Blast weight workouts. They are so much fun, and a good level for the pregnant body. No, I didn't go down the hill with the kids. The other couple we were with have a 1 year old baby, so his mom and I plopped him in a toboggan and pulled him on a trail through the river valley. The poor husbands got the privilege of slogging all the sleds back up the hill after each run down! So, I suppose they deserved the hot chocolates more than anyone!
Marketa - I know what you mean about IMAX3! I previewed the workout very carefully and wrote a brief description of each interval blast and how many times she runs through them, so I could plan my modifications ahead of time. It's good to know that she only does one billion plie squats instead of two billion LOL!
I had my first ultrasound today and saw my 4cm baby! S/he was a wiggling ball with a big head and flailing arms and legs, with a heartbeat of 161 bpm. I figure with that heart rate s/he was practicing a Cathe workout! We were relieved to only see one baby in there!! I've been eating for three, I swear...
Cheers!
