I took ANJ to see the Circus exhibit at Discovery Place, they had a special clown show also with a couple of Ringling Brothers pro's showing how they do their tricks. I must have got there during shift change b/c as i was driving up the parking deck a car load of clowns was driving down. It is pretty cool how they do their tricks though, it all takes alot of practice, the one's we saw were very matter of fact about how plates spin on a stick and how to juggle 3 sticks and a yoyo.
ANJ is still too little for the high wire and trapeze, they had small ones set up so the big kids could get strapped in and try them.
His favorite was the assortment of circus animal poop; you had to touch each one and guess from which animal it came. The elephant sample was the largest, of course.
Below are some pics from the event.

I got him to stand still for one second to take a picture, what a feat!
He squeezed into the contortionist box.
He tried to pull out the sword, i thought it was excalibur at first, but its really a sword swallowing exhibit.
He danced with the shadow people.
And finally, he amazed everyone with his feats of strength!
