Under the big top

Yesterday we went to the circus -- so much fun!! Before the show, you can go down and look at the animals (warning, the elephants were muy stinko) and watch the performers juggle, clown around, perform, take pictures, and sign autographs. All the kids are way to shy to approach the performers, or even interact, so I never expect smiles in those photos. They even had costumes for us to try on. And of course, no trip to the circus would be complete without cotton candy and popcorn. (The circus marketing team has figured this out and adjusted the price accordingly.) And all this before the show began!
