The "Amazing" Zurah Shrine Circus

Our neighbor gave us discount tickets to the circus. We upgraded to closer seats and paid $26 for the three of us. The acts we really liked were the ones that took real talent: the juggling, the tight rope walkers, the 5 motorcyclists in a metal ball, etc. The animal acts were mostly just sad. However, Noah saw pepole riding the elephant and just HAD TO RIDE IT! Here we are on one of the biggest land mammals alive today:

Momma and Noah on Ellie.

Our favorite act of all was the stunt man being shot out of a cannon. It lasted not even 5 seconds, but it was amazingly cool to see a guy hurtling across the Target Center.

For those of you who know my opinion of clowns, I will let you know that they were so lame they weren't even close to being scary.

In the future, I think we will be going to people only circuses. There are many professional shows out there to check out. And there are some great family shows coming up in the cities. Free even! I hate the cold weather of MN, but it is a great city to raise a family in.
