Circus OZ!

Ohmygosh! ok, so we went to the Circus Molly's last night in Australia. We first went out to dinner at Margo's, a restaurant in Crown Casino that is amazing. Then we walked along Southbank to Birrarung Marr behind Federation Square. As we walked along the river towards the Big Top we could hear bells. There were so many of them and they were playing just a random song. I got a video of it. There were these really tall metal poles that were all lit up outside the entrance where the bells were being played from. It was cool.

We got our tickets and went inside. Every seat in that place was super close and a good spot to see everything. And you can't go to the Circus without buying some kind of food. We got donuts :) 5 sugar coated donuts for $3, woot woot!

The name of their new act was called 'But Wait! There's More!' The entire show was great! So many cool acts and the thing was super hilarious too. There was one part, and I'm going to try and convey just how funny it was, but I won't succeed. You really had to be there to get it, but I guess this will just help us remember better :) Okay, so at one point they were doing an act where there was a 'judge' with a buzzer just like in America's Got Talent and the rest of them kept running out and doing something different trying to win. There was an older guy doing some BMX tricks and he always had his bike with him and at one point he came running out with the bike on a leash and a whip, and he started turning in circles and snapping the whip in an imitation of training a horse. It was going really well and we were wondering how he could keep that bike up and pulling it around so well while snapping the whip, but then the bike fell and at first we were like 'uh oh' but then two others ran out with a black cloth and stricken expressions and covered the bike while the man stood in the center with his mouth open and another came out with this board where he stood next to the fallen covered bike and snapped it against the floor. It made it sound like a gunshot and the man in the center let out this whimper/sob and ohmygosh, we lost it. They totally 'killed' the bike for falling down. It so doesn't sound as funny retelling it but we could not stop laughing. Everything happened perfectly and it was so ridiculous :D

sorry guys, it seems I can't upload that video of the bells. Anyways, that was our night at the circus! :)
