Circus

 Last weekend, we went to the circus.  The girls had a great time.  They did better than I expected as the circus ended up being over 3 hours (with the pre show)  This was right before intermission.  Sasha was starting to fade soem and did not want to sit on the elephant.  we finally got her to smile for the picture.  We went and got some popcorn and a hot dog and that seemed to help alot. 
 We got there after the preshow had already started.  We watched part of it from here and then went down on the floor.  Too many people to really see much down there.,
 We had seats between an aisle and the stairs so it was like a little 3 seat section to ourselves.  It let Leeza stand on the stairs and move around some when she got antsy.
 The lions were good, but one was really cranky.  She got to skip most of her trips by growling at the trainer.  THey also had a dog act and even a house cat act.  I didn't know you could train a house cat.
 These were chinese acrobats who dived through a circle of swords they lit on fire while wearing a bag over their heads.  They were really good.
And of course, they had elephants.  It is not a circus without elephants.
