We walked by every night for two and half weeks and never went - guess we were more interested in just relaxing and being in amour.

When I got to the window I saw elephants walking on 34th street. Since I wasn't fully awakened yet, i just wasn't sure where I was,or if I was dreaming. Then the zebras started with the horses and camels AND CLOWNS...and then it sunk in that I was watching thr Ringling Brothers circus coming to town thru the midtown tunnel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-43509664279244015592008-02-19T19:51:00.000+01:002008-02-19T19:51:00.000+01:00I really love the fact that there is a permanent c...I really love the fact that there is a permanent circus BUILDING extant in the world.

Wow!<BR/>It is surely definitely a post for children and ... their parents or friends who would like to make them a great surprise! Circus is always loved by children (anyway mine love it!). <BR/>Two weeks of school vacation are coming at the end of this week in Paris. So quick after the last ones at the end of december... I am never used to that! Next week, I will be in the Alpes and hope the sky will be as blue as it is on this photo. If it is not, I will miss Paris a lot. Luckily, I will be able to keep in touch, with PDP, thanks to Eric.
