The Circus

Yesterday we took Brandon to the circus here in Jacksonville. The Morocco Shriners hosted the event at UNF. At first Brandon wasn't so sure what to think of everything. It was noisy, crowded, chaotic and over-stimulating. But once the lights went down and the circus actually started, Brandon had a blast. He was a little dancing, rocking boy to the techno music. The animals made him laugh, especially the jumping dogs... who arrived on the set in a little train. (Brandon LOVES trains.) We all loved the lady who was swinging on a rope trapeze thing and flipping around without a net under her (insane). Overall it was a really good circus (we had worried it would be cheesy) and we were so happy we took B to see it. It was a lot of fun and I'd do it again if they come back to town! Now that I know that Brandon enjoys stuff like this I'll look in to Sesame Street Live and other kid shows coming to town.
