Well, believe it or not, the Circus came to our little town of Harrismith. We decided to go and so most of the staff that are here and all of the interns loaded up after work on Tuesday to the "Greatest Show on Earth".....well, not exactly, but it was something to do!
We were so excited to go and eat circus food, see circus acts...and laugh....and laugh..and boy did we. The BIG act was the Two Tigers and one Lion....who really just moved around and ate meat. Really, though there were some good acts...Balancing and very Flexible Chinese Ladies, a Swinging dare devil and a man who ran around the "Wheel of Death"! There were of course clowns, wearing strange costumes with poor dialogue..but they were clowns.
One of the highlights was when one of our own was called up for one of the clow acts. Matt, one of the interns, was a good sport. I will say, that we were the typical "Loud Americans" clapping, whistling, screaming and generally enjoying the show......and trying not to BE the show...which is hard in our small town!
Here are a few pictures....my roommate and I (I am the one with the Big Red nose).....
And this is all of the girls with Martinez the Swinging Rope Guy....I wonder where the guys are...they must have been scared off by his costume! :)
Great Fun...Great Fun indeed!

I think it's funny that you guys are all bundled up and circus guy is sans shirt.
There he is. What tight pants.
Gross.
Nat- that is funny...he had a coat on, but took it off for the picture, so it would be like he looked during the performance!
Mo- I think you are smiling about as big as I am...btw!
sounds like a fun night!
I don't think that's possible!
Did everyone notice how big Char is smiling in the picture?...and her placement "just so"... :) Good times for sure!!
