Circus Royale

The circus still is the greatest show on earth! Dave and I took LTD to the circus on Friday for our second annual trip. Just like last year, we had a super time and Dylan's coat didn't even get stolen this year! We had rockstar seats too which made it even better (although the music was a BIT loud). At intermission, LTD got to ride the miniature ponies and the elephant and they were in absolute high heaven. They were a little bummed they didn't get to see the elephant "poop" though, an experience we were "right there" for last year and one they still haven't quit talking about. It took several wheelbarrels to haul it all out as LTD's eyes and jaws were WIDE open with amazement. Our favorites were the acrobats and trapeze artists, tigers, pigs (yes trained pigs vs. bears on bicycles) and the human cannonball. Here is this 60-something man shooting high above the crowd from a cannon and he nearly hit the ceiling and then almost missed the net. It was an absolute riot!! Dave and I agreed that looked like something right up Dave's alley! I can totally see Dave with his helmet on shooting superfast out of a cannon; wouldn't that be hysterical?!!
