Here's what we saw:
The Peking Acrobats were mind blowing... I still can't believe it. And they do things without any safety nets or wires. It was a wonderful show. I wish that I was able to take pictures of the events, but of course they don't allow that. And in the case of the acrobats, it would be dangerous too.
I have never gone to a "circus" before that I know of. I thought that it would be different than it was, but I was pleasantly surprised. And I learned other things too: if something doesn't seem too well organized before you get there, don't expect them to have food for you. Listen to others that tell you to bring food. Or just say "screw it" earlier and walk across the street and get some good food. That and childrens' festivals will likely have face painting, so scope it out early so there are no tears at the end of the day. I really wanted my face to look like spider-man... I'll stop now, it's just too emotional to talk about so soon after... *sniff*
Listening to: Madonna - Don't Stop
Sellers, WTF? Why didn't you tell me there was a pseudo-circus in town. You know i'm all about the circus and other stupidity. OK, from now on, if anybody ever hears about organized stupidity that is going on in the Ottawa area, let me know.
ReplyDeleteBTW, if any of you are interested, June 19th is World Juggling Day. There is a big (?) show going on at Confederation Park at 13:00, and i'll be there; unfortunately only in the audience, of course. Hope some of you idiots can make it.
The reason why I didn't mention it before was because it was for kids... I guess that I should have mentioned it.
ReplyDeleteI guess that it was really for people who *acted* like kids... ah well. My mistake. :-P
I act like a kid (aka ass), plus i look like i'm twelve - particularly in a ball cap. I would have gotten in for sure.
