The Circus Comes To Town

Enzo and I went to Circus Maximum. They were in town for only two days and we saw the flyers around the city and were eager to go. I don't recall ever going to a circus as a kid, however, my mom said I did. Anywho, I was excited to go with Enzo and see the action.

However, it didn't dawn on me until we arrived...the animals. How do they treat the animals? Are they nice to the animals? And what are zebras doing in Sweden? They can't like it here? Etc... I became a little unsure if a circus was/is actually a good thing. It's entertainment but at whose cost. Is it a circus minus the animals...I think so. But who knows...

We had a good time. It was a bit late, it didn't start until 7pm and wasn't over until 9:15pm. I was T.I.R.E.D by the time it was over and so was a little boy but we enjoyed ourselves. I think it would have sufficed with an hour show.


Ready to go to the circus.


Waiting in line.


Camel and pony riding for the kids. But my kid was so not interested...as usual.




Here's a video of crazy motorcyclists going around and around in the ball cage. First it was one, then two and lastly three of them in there at the same time. I only videoed when it was two but that was crazy enough. And to top it off a girl was standing in the middle, inside there, at one point. CRAZY!
