It has been almost a decade since we've attended a circus show. Ringling Brother and Barnum & Bailey was worth the wait. We were thoroughly entertained and mesmerized. J liked the hat that came with the cotton candy.
Watching Kelly, the elephant, paint was pretty cool.
The kids were all given clown noses.
Later we saw clowns, a hula hoop act, and the trapeze artists.
Watching the dogs (and other assorted animals) perform made us realize Buster's potential as a show dog. We watched the poodles jump through hoops, over people, balance on rope, jump rope, etc.
The lions and tigers were pretty cool, but....
.. the coolest to E was the motorcycle act
We held our breath when there were 5 motorcycles racing inside the steel ball. Then 6. Then 7. Then 8? What? That's just plain crazy. 8 motorcyclists racing around. Wow!
Enjoying the circus with their cousins...priceless.
