I have never been to any circus shows for long but I have vague memories of going out for circus with my family when I was a young boy. We had great fun together having popcorns and candy sweets. Busy with my professional and personal life, I hardly had time for such leisure. I had to go for business conferences very often, mostly out of the city.
Well, my lady love Samantha and my little angel Samira always complain for not spending quality time with them. Going for a circus show was totally out of the box. But recently, Jay my neighbour ringed and asked if I wished to go for a circus show. It was like they booked the tickets in advance, but unfortunately they had some other urgent plans. They wanted us, if we wished, to use their tickets. There were three tickets and since it was a weekend I thought it will be fun to go with Samantha and Samira.
The Big Apple Circus hoardings were placed all over New York City. After long years, again I got a chance to watch it all again with my family. Really, it did take me to the past when I was a young boy so excited to watch the breathtaking show. Well, I could see the same spark in Samira too. She was more excited to watch the show since she had known about it only in her work books.
The streets were lighted with red, green and blue. Each letter of the BIG APPLE CIRCUS was highlighted in golden lightings that dominated the rest of the decors. Before entering the main entrance, we bought corn ice creams for us. Samira insisted for chocolate flavour. The show started. Within few minutes, young ladies and guys all dressed up in attractive costumes lined up the stage.
The way the artists jumped from one ring to another was something really breathtaking to watch. They took from heights and just swung in the air with great balance. The flexibility and perfection was something that needs great applaud. I don’t know I had a mix of emotions for them. The dedication, hardship and coordination were simply awesome. They also did lots of tricks on probes too.
The funny and audacious moves of elephants and tigers did really impressed Samira. She was just dancing on her seat with excitement and joy. I was just thinking about their dedication. They are also just normal human beings like us who works hard for their daily living. More importantly they are so passionate about their work. Even at high risk, they entertain us to the fullest. We took lots of snaps, had pop corns, candies etc. The show ended late in the night. It was real fun, even Samira enjoyed to the fullest.
