Circus came to town!

When I was a child, we lived in a small village with not so many people. The people were farmers  and fishermens. There were only a few stores and it was a very monotone and  quite  life. But once a year, the circus comes and suddenly everyone was busy and the circus will be the talk of the town. For me, it's like seeing people from other planet.

Anyway, now I am old....not too old and living in a small town of Norway. And one day, the circus came to town.  I asked a dear old lady who lives in a nursing home if she wanted to go with me to see the show. And guess what? She was very happy that I asked. And so we went!

 The orchestra, getting ready for the show.


And here we are, like children, looking forward for the show.


And the show begins... colorful lights eveywhere


And the performers showed up..with  clowns of course!


Acrobatic show!


And the circus clown found a boy ( who had birthday that day) from the audience to help him with the show. The clown made the boy's birthday very special. 

The man with his ladder and lady assistant!

And a show with these cute dogs!


And a performer who did his dance while hanging with his wrists tied on  a rope.


juggling with balls

The stuntman ! He is really strongggggg!
Elephant show

Actually, I don't like this part of circus program because I feel sorry for the animals. Circus is not a good place for them. They must be outside where they can move and run freely. 

 And the circus way of saying goodbye! Until next year again.


And her way of saying goodbye !
