Under the Big Top

Not really the big top but the Bob Guertin Arena in Gatineau. Not that the trio of Isabelle, Oliver and Logan really cared that there was no big top to be found. As far as they were concerned, this place had cotton candy, popcorn and elephants so it qualified as a circus. All three kids had an awesome at their first trip to the circus, amazed by the stunts (including two motorcycles plus two people in an enclosed steel ball), entertained by the animals (elephants, panthers, monkeys and camels) and overwhelmed by the spectacle and the excitement. Oliver, fresh off his nap, wasn't too sure what he was getting himself into when he arrived inside, but he settled down once he saw some animals (although stayed stuck to Mom or Dad for the whole show). Isabelle and Logan were also suitable impressed with the big show, chatting back and forth as each act came out, wondering what it might be like if they joined the circus (their parents have slightly higher aspirations for them!). All in all, everyone had a fabulous time and we look forward to the circus' return in years to come!

Did you see that, Mom?  An elephant! The circus totally rocks!
