Ringling Brothers Circus

Yesterday we took James to his first circus and it did not disappoint. I'm not sure who was more excited though, me or James. I used to love going to the circus as a kid and was really looking forward to seeing it again. We made sure to get there early for the "pre-show" in which you can walk around and get a close-up look at the animals and meet some of the performers. They also had a large inflatable bounce-house play land, so of course James had to go on that as many times as possible. After the bounce-house, we walked around a looked at all of the animals and then met some of the performers. Before we knew it, it was time for the show to begin. James (as well as Mike and I) had an absolute blast and I know this will be something we attend in the future.
