circus

• Saturday we went to the Ringling Bros. circus. It was such a disappointment. The kids liked it though. When I think of the circus I think of lions, tigers, jugglers, and acrobats. The show lasted over 2 hours but I left thinking I hadn't yet seen anything. When we arrived their were protestors outside with signs claiming cruelty to animals. Maybe being a circus performer isn't all that exciting anymore and no one aspires to grow up in the circus. Or no one is running away from home with the circus being the only job available. Whatever reason I was dissappointed. Not to mention the $10.00 you have to fork over for a small bag of cotton candy.
