My partner and I got tickets to take the kids to the circus.
The tickets were free from work.
The two of us decided to take the kids last Friday. It was the last weekend of the circus. I really didn’t want to go when it was going to be busy and there would be people everywhere. I purposely waited until it was later during the month so we wouldn’t have as much crowd. Unblessedly, that didn’t turn out to be a truly wonderful idea. The locale was still packed with people and some people were kneeling because there were not enough seats inside of the location. It was truly warm and humid inside of the circus tent. There were substantial industrial fans blowing everywhere, but they were no match for the heat and humidity outside. It smelled really terrible too. It smelled exactly appreciate you would expect a circus to smell. The kids complained about the smell the whole time that we were there. They wanted to leave early and I wasn’t too unhappy with the idea. The two of us never got to see the lions or the elephant. The two of us left at supper time after we saw the clown show. The kids were bummed out about our day and so were our partner and I, so we decided to take the kids to the aquarium. It was late in the day already, so we got half price tickets. The two of us walked around inside the air conditioned building. The two of us saw lots of unusual types of critters and we didn’t have to deal with horrible humidity and warm conditions or a lingering smell that made us want to throw up.
