We had a blast at The Ringling Brothers Circus last night.  I went once when I was a kid, and I have the pictures to prove it.  But I do not remember it at all, so I was really excited to take my family to the circus.

There was certainly a lot to see and do.

It all started at 6:30 when they allow ticket holders a chance to come down to the circus floor and get a real feel of what it might be like to join the circus.

This is a free “extra” just for purchasing a ticket!  You can still take advantage of the special promotion for discounted tickets from This Side of Eternity that I shared with you here.

The show started off with a bang and continued to pick up speed as it went on.

I was not impressed with the striptease show at the begining of the show, and I think we could have done without the sexy biker dancers, I’m quite certain those were for some of the dads in the crowd and not the kids. But other than those two acts everything else was pretty spectacular!

We loved seeing the tigers, dogs, elephants, and even a porcupine. 

The motorbikes in the steel sphere were amazing!  The had 7 of them in the sphere going at once!

Of course there were plenty of trapeze artists and clowns.

The show will continue through November 22nd.  You can find all the details regarding show dates and times here.

My daughter said it was the coolest thing she ever saw!
