The Greatest Show on Earth



This groundhog's day marked William's very first trip to the Circus! We went with our friends Dylan and Tiffany. It was a very entertaining show - I'd definitely recommend it to anyone with kids. But watch out for the concessions! We purchased a bag of cotton candy for $12!!!! ONE BAG! And the guy who sat behind us bought a snow cone for $15!!!!! CRAZY! I guess it's what to expect for a day out with circus folk... (small hands).

Anyway, William's favorite part was when the top clown/acrobat guy climbed up this really tall pole. He and a female acrobat swayed up there while performing death-defying feats - and it ended with them sliding down the poles upside-down. I think William really thought they were going to hit the ground. Of course, they stopped themselves inches before the bottom.

Personally, I like the tigers because... well.. big kitties! Although, they all looked pretty irritated to be in the show - they sure are beautiful animals.

How fun! I can't even remember the last time I went to the circus.
