The Circus comes to Mt Zion

The circus came to Mt Zion today.  Before we even went inside, Leeza got to ride a camel.  Sasha thought it was too tall.
They had a face painting booth right inside the tent.  Leeza was a butterfly.
Sasha was a tiger.
My scary butterfly and growling tiger.
Neither girls liked the clowns, but everyone liked the puppy pirates. After the first act, Leeza wanted to leave.  She did not like the clowns!!!  We went outside to the potty and on the way back she changed her mind and wanted to go back into the circus. It went ok after that, but no one ever liked the clowns. They had a good variety of acts.  At half time, we got our picture taken with a tiger in a glass cage. 
Elephants were the highlight of the show.  The circus was nice since it was small and you were very close to the acts.

Once the circus was over, we went outside and the girls got to ride the elephants.  This one was named Lisa.  Sasha was no longer afraid.
That is a long way up on the back of one big elephant.
You can see how much fun they were having. 
After the elephant, we had to ride the ponies.
They went round and round.  Mom was tired at this point and just wanted to go home, but the ponies kept on going for about 5 minutes.
We had a good time at the circus.  I liked this one alot since it was smaller and had simpler acts that the girls enjoyed.
