Circus !



The Circo di Barcellona has arrived in town so I decided to take Momichan there ^^
We have an appointment with a kindergarden mate and her mom but we cannot find so we buy tickets and we enter. Inside there are not so many people and is a little hot. We take a sit near the center and we give a look around, inside the circus men are preparing to start and are cleaning with brooms the center of the track.

The director present the first attraction, a girl with hula hop circles, she is very good and the dress she is wearing is glimmering and makes a beautiful effect, she is able to move more than 30 circles and everybody claps hands even Momichan who seems to understand everything and is totally enchanted and happy.



Now is the turn of a girl climbing a ladder with a sword in equilibrium on her forehead and of a man who is making a big cube twistle and turn over his head. Another man is making excercices on an high ladder, he is very good but has to use a lot nof strenght. Everyone is keeping silence because the excercise is very difficult and Momichan too looks at me with a small finger on her mouth and tell "mommy .... ssssss !" Clowns come in the track making children laugh and making some funny things.


The first part of the show is ended, there is a 10 minutes breack during which the circus men build the cage for the tigers ....










Everybody is now sitting again after the coffee breack, no one breath, tigers are coming in and take their places inside the cage, their master orders them what to do and they jump here and there, one of them is a little nervous and shows everybody her big teeth !

Tigers finish their show and cage is taken away. A girl is now flying upon us and twirling in the air. After her camels come in, lamas, a zebra and tibethan cows, they just run inside in circle making nothing particular.










The last one coming in is the strong masked man called "Ray Misterio". He has to breack with his forehead a strong thick piece of marble and walks with that piece of stone around making the public touch it to see is a real marble piece. After the stone he folds a big thick metal piece and again he walks in the middle of the public to show there is no trick. I do not know why Momichan was not afraid of the tigers but she is terrorised by this man and when the director tell everybody there is the possibility to make fotos with the strong man Momichan hugs me tightly and tells me she fears him so much ^^

Show is ended, all circus members comes in the middle of the track to say goodbye and after people start to go out, is already 19.15 and we have to go home for dinner, Momichan seems enthusiastic and say she has enjoed so much ^^
