The Circus Came to Town

The Al Kaly Shrine Circus came to Monte Vista. Jamie has watched different videos that had circus stories (Dumbo & Thomas The Tank Engine) so he was excited to go to his first circus. It didn't start until 8:00p.m. (What were they thinking?) and it was outdoors. Translation: it was very cold and very late by the time it was over. Jamie was a trooper, though, and stayed awake for the entire show. We splurged and bought cotton candy but couldn't bring ourselves to spend money on the silly inflatable toys and glow light toys. Jamie didn't seem too disappointed. It was a small circus but they did have lions and tigers, camels, horses, elephants, acrobats, a tight-rope walker and a BMX stunt rider. It was too dark to take many photos but Jamie enjoyed the show.
