Davis Mega Maze and Cirque's Varekai
Cthulia arranged a big group outing Sunday to the Davis Mega Maze which is a very large cornfield maze in Sterling, MA designed by Adrian Fischer and featuring 11 bridges to massively complexify the topology. We managed to make it through but had missed a couple of Bridges and other interest points so went back in to complete them (with a bunch of help from the Maze staff). Quite fun but an exceedingly hot day to do it and I ended up completely drenched in sweat. Others went off to get ice cream afterwards and I tried to join them before realizing I just didn't have time and rushed home to grab shower before going out again.
In the evening, we went to the Cirque du Soleil's Varekai, a travelling show currently in Boston. I had earlier seen the absolutely incredible O in Las Vegas and been blown away by it but, for a variety of reasons, didn't have nearly as high expectations of this show. Well, although it is true that I didn't think Varekai was as good as O, I thought it was still amazingly good and incredibly worth seeing. I wonder what the objections of those who warned me against it were.

The Davis Mega Maze is built each year by Rob Stouffer of Precision Corn Mazes, which is based in Lee's Summit, Missouri. Corn Mazes are big business these days.
