It's really the coolest place to be during these hot, hot days

This could be the perfect pastime in the hottest days of the year: to watch Ice Age Live in Shanghai and four other cities in China.

Organizers say that adventures of the extinct hairy elephant and his prehistoric animal friends on ice is one of the largest, most expensive theater shows on ice. It will have 16 performances through Aug 16 at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai, before traveling to Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dalian and Beijing.

Children and adults in the audience will marvel as the 4-meter-high Mammoth Manny and Ellie make their steps on the thin ice. In one scene a Mammoth flying over their head will no doubt be a spectacular sight.
