A: Someone else mentioned the changes that the show has undergone and I thought I'd throw in a second here as well. When the show first opened, there seemed to be less dancing and more acrobatics. The dancing is lame beyond belief and there are a few times where they put people around the ring and they actually get in the way of being able to view the performance. Most notably, this happened during the "muscular twins" act where there are two guys in the middle doing feats of strength. One of the feats I couldn't see because the heroine and a shirtless guy in jeans was in front of me watching. I have a strong feeling that I paid more for my ticket than they did so perhaps they should get out of the way? Also, the story seemed to make much less sense. In the first version, the girl is dropped off after an apparently good date, goes to sleep and the story begins. After meeting a bunch of interesting characters, she says goodbye and the show ends. In the current version, she somehow hurts the feelings of the guy she went out with, goes to sleep, wakes up and he's still there. They then go to bed together and another act proceeds. I've seen this show a total of six times and it has been demoted to the utter crap list. I don't know who helped do the changes to Le Reve, but considering how bad they are, I can't imagine that it was Dragone. If you don't want to see Jersey Boys and must see a cirque show, I recommend... Mystere -- if you want the best acrobatics Love -- if you want the best music O -- if you want what Le Reve should be KA -- if you want a cirque show that's a far departure from the others

A: I love my coffee and I've wanted try this place since January. Arrived here just before closing 10:00 pm so I couldn't really enjoy the large table for laptop usage or just kick back and get some reading in. The selection here is large and offerings include various coffee drinks, teas, limited food, pastries and even in house made gelato. I tried the decaf latte and the apricot tart. My coffee was so rich in flavor, decent sized and the flavor was as tasty as a regular! The apricot tart was good also - not overly sweet and went perfect with my latte. I'll return here next time I'm in the area, but I'll take advantage of the comfortable lounge & pleasant surroundings of Sambalatte Torrefazione.

A:
I am writing this from the perspective of being a photographer. This is the first time that I have been to the Preserve after reading, and hearing so much about it. I found it to be quite disappointing. The issues with the Preserve, again, only from a bird spotting, and photography standpoint are many. 1. The area is completely overgrown. It has limited the view of all of the ponds and removed the vast majority of quality shooting locations. Beyond that, walking along the paths is ridiculous. I was walking along ponds, I should have been able to see, completely obstructed by shrubs and trees. To define a quality shooting location; an area one can sit in, with a 180 degree view of the pond or the subject in front of the person. There were trees that had 1/3 of its trunk covered in debris. I sat and watched birds, rats, and rabbits emerge from the debris. This overgrowth is both unsightly, and a fire hazard. 2. The majority of the benches and blinds have been rendered unusable. Again, it comes down to the area being overgrown. I walked past several benches that were placed on the edge of the pond, yet a view of dense shrubbery was presented. The blinds in the special use areas are shrouded and covered. What's the point of having a permit to use an area that has no unobstructed view? 3. Varmints. There are rabbits EVERYWHERE. Yes, they're cute, but rabbits bring rats, and there were a ton of those too. This is a disease outbreak waiting for a place to happen. I went today looking for Burrowing Owls. All gone. Why? Cats. Feral cats have preyed on all of the Burrowing Owls, and they have been removed. 4. The ponds are inconsistently watered. This has made the birds leave for other locations. I am incredibly displeased that I went today. I can go to a golf course and see the same birds with far less hassle, and can get great shots. It's unfortunate that the staff of this preserve isn't committed to making this a pristine bird area.
