The circus has come to town! They had the "elephant walk" tonight, which is something I had never heard of before until this morning, but Casey said he had heard of it before, so I guess it's a thing. Anyway, the elephants and horses walk from the train tracks through downtown Charlotte to the arena where they will have the circus. (Thankfully, they didn't let the tigers join the parade through the city streets.) So we took the new light rail into the city to watch the spectacle (ok, the video isn't actually all that exciting). It took all of five minutes, but we had fun welcoming the circus to Charlotte and we're looking forward to going to the big show. Well, we won't be going to see that particular show in Charlotte. We're going to Greensboro the following week to see a different Ringling Brothers show. Apparently they have different shows that travel around, and we saw the Charlotte show in Greensboro last year, so we're going to Greensboro again this year so we can see a different show. That, and the tickets are way cheaper. And I grab any excuse to go visit my parents after their 3 month absence from my life. (Yes, Mom and Dad -- It's nice to have you home again! By the way, we need a babysitter next week....)
