The Circus - January 24th, 2011

Sam ( he just spotted the elephants coming in the arena)





The Circus was in town for a day so we went to the fairgrounds out in Hurricane. They held it in the horse arena instead of under the "Big Top". We went with Jessica's family and Izzy. For such a small circus it was really very good. We all enjoyed it. They had the usual trapeze artists, clowns, juggling acts, swords and fire acts, and also a sphere that they had motorcycles spinning around in. But the highlight of the evening was the elephants. They were awesome. Little Sam was in awe watching them. He has always loved anything to do with elephants. The kids all wanted to go on an elephant ride but it was too expensive, so maybe next time....
