Fun at the Circus!

While we were in SD, the Carson and Barnes 3-Ring traveling circus came to Milbank. We went to see it with Grandma and Grandpa Loeschke. The performers were AMAZING!


These women did an aerial act from a ladder suspended from the big top ceiling. There were no nets, and it didn't look like the bottom girl had any kind of safety strap on her at all! She was just held there by the other girl, who was hanging by her feet upside down. It was crazy!

Amazing hoola-hooping talent!

Strong men!

Elephants!

At intermission, we walked around outside the big tent where they had concessions, a petting zoo, and animal rides.
Alex saw the camel ride area and started cracking up at the camel. I was carrying him, and he asked me, "What's that?" I said, "It's a camel." Alex was still laughing, and he said, "It's big and funny. I want to ride it!!!" He told Daddy the same thing. Apparently that camel was the funniest animal Alex had ever seen. :)
