The Circus - the Greatest Show on Earth

...or should I say the most expensive show on earth. The tickets aren't actually that much but by the time you pay for parking, eat and buy a toy that your kid has to have (because how often do you go to the circus) the bill is pretty high.

We stopped first at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. for dinner. Then literally ran to the circus so we didn't miss the opening fireworks. The Clarks came with us which doubled the fun.



















Circus ticket: $15
Cotton Candy that comes with this free awesome hat: $12
Light up Sword: $22

Watching your son's mouth drop as he watches a motorcycle ride a tight rope at his first circus ever:

PRICELESS
