Ringling Barnum Bailey Circus
Well now, that was great. We arrived at about 7 for the 7:30 show and went down to the preshow on the Rose Garden floor. Wee walked quickly past the concessions because we’re saving our cash for tomorrow’s trip to Kumoricon.
The pre show had us enjoying some acrobats, the hat tossers, the stilt guys and Miss K even got a tattoo! But the real show arrived at 7:30, by a fascinating coincidence the same time grandmas showed up with their authentic hot dogs!
In the first act we saw an elephant, a whole lot of acrobats, and some clowns. I wasn’t sure how they were going to top this for the second act, but the motorcycle sphere of doom, the elephants, the tigers and more amazing acrobats sealed that deal.
The kids’ eyes were shining, their mouthes were agape. I bought some $12 cotton candy and stuffed it into their mouths. They had a blast.
After the show, Miss B and her mother compared notes on the acrobatic guys’ sixpacks while I carried a tired Miss K back to the car.
