The Circus was in Town!

     Last weekend we went to the circus!  It was something my parents were planning for a while and wanted to take us to the Ringling Brothers Barnum Bailey Circus.  It was such an amazing show and the first time I even attended!  We got there early and went down to see some of the act perform for the audience before the show.  The clowns and elephants were entertaining and there were people everywhere.  When the show started they had the theme of the Dragon and did  such a great job the show was actually not just amazing stunts but actually a show and they did such a great job telling this amazing story.  They had all kinds of animal acts, high flying stunts and even Shaolin monks.  They did all kinds of stunts with fire and sharp objects and everything was just spot on.

     The most amazing thing was how fast they got the different stunts setup so fast.  While they were setting up they had something else going on so you would look away.  When that was over the next part of the show was on.  I was so amazing how spot on everything was.  I think the entire time only one stunt was a little off.  They had a guy on on guys shoulders and another would jump down and then shoot the third on his shoulders.  The didn't get it the first time but just shrugged and made us laugh.  The they did it again and were on point, and everyone cheered!  The audience was very great and I think everyone had a good time.  At one point one the Lion tamer was in a cage with 4 female lions, 4 tigers and one male lion.  He did all sorts of tricks and even made them jump over each other.  I can't believe how he was in that cage with all those amazing animals and they all got alone too.  It was just something else to see it.  I would have been freaking out lol, guess that's why I didn't do it.

     They also had the cage where the motorcyclist all get in and ride.  They got 8 riders in at one point!  I couldn't believe it, they whole show was amazing I would tell anyone to go and see it.  Quinn had such a good time she had some popcorn and just enjoyed the whole show.  See for your self!

You have to at some point go see the circus, so make sure you do.

Always remember,
You are never alone...

Love,
Christopher

I wonder why this guy's pay is....  I can't imagine being in this cage!  They still look small compared to Eve!

Imagine being feet away from an animal that could just tear you apart in seconds.  This part of the show was just simply amazing.


One of the monks jumped through a ring made of blades on fire!

The show was over and I have never seen anything like it.  It was just amazing, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.  They did such a good job and I want to thank everyone for such an amazing time.   So the next time the Ringling Brothers Barnum Baily Circus is in town make sure you go and see the amazing show!
