Hello everyone,
how are you all doing? Hopefully well.
We are about to head to the circus here in a little bit. They have two shows today but we got ticket for the 4 PM show. Not sure what time we need to be there, but we live probably only 5 minutes away.
Hopefully Eli will have fun. It is both of our first time going to the Circus.
I guess we will meet up with my half sister, though I haven't heard from her today. We will see how it all goes.
What should we expect? I don't know! I heard there will be camel and elephant rides and face painting while people wait for the show to start.

Great stuff
I really hope that you and Eli enjoy the visit to the circus
I haven't been to a circus in about 55 years
I don't think that here they have the same animals that they used to have.
20 minutes early would be a good time to arrive, plenty time to get a snack before you get seated.
I wouldn't know what to expect at a.circus these days. Probably be a few clowns. Trapeze artist maybe, jugglers etc
Anyway have fun
Let us all know how it went please

It was interesting, that is for sure.
Oh wow that is a while since you have seen one.
I am sure they have similar animals.
We went a half an hour early or so. No snacks, everything was overpriced.
No clowns, well one but he wasn't scary at least.
I'll share about all we saw, would be nice if I could post videos here, well without having to have them just linked to YouTube or something.

They can be scary and/or creepy for sure....I unnderstand not wanting to go back.
Yes, $7 for a small snow cone is just insane.
Same here, about the videos....

I best be honest
When I was a kid about 5 the clown scareded me and I didn't want to go to a circus again
I can just imagine how expensive the snacks were. I wouldn't have bought them either
I don't like having to upload videos on YouTube so I can post them here
So I don't do videos

The show itself was good. The rest of the evening not so fun. But may share about that another time

$7 for ice was highway robbery. I hope you enjoyed the show.

@LindaOHio It is fine, just maybe it was better not knowing anything.

It was $7 for that, or popcorn, or cotton candy! Crazy!
The show itself was good, put some photos and videos on Facebook.
The sister part, not good at all.

He didnt' want his face painted. Not sure how much it would have cost anything. To ride the animals was $10
