Le Cirque

So this morning, Tony, Nicholas, Geoffrey and I got off the bus and headed in the usuall direction. Usually we walk through a lawn, just beyond the gas station in the corner. But today, we had to go around, cuz someone had put a trailer on the grass !!

Thats when we realised what it was... a Circus !! No no, not like our Gemini and Rajkamal Circus back in India. This one was like a touring party, with a trailer full of animals. And beleive me, what animals !

Tied to pegs in the lawn were:

A goat (an unusual one, maybe a mountain goat)
A bull (with the biggest horns i ever saw !)
A Llama (first time i ever saw one)

Inside the trailer, and being offloaded with some difficulty, was a donkey... no, i'm serious... a donkey !!

Running all over the road, probably trying to get itself killed was a fuzzy little ball of hair, which we later discovered to be a dog. There was also a camel, which was getting a good wash from a jet-spray. I wonder if this guy borrowed it from the gas station.

We stood there looking at this spectacle for 5 minutes, and walked on. Only to find that there was a baby Llama running all over the Intermarche parking lot, just across from the plant where i work !!

This circus is going to have two shows. One today and another tomorrow. Then they move on. I regretted not having my camera. Tomorrow, i will click some snaps, and update the blog with them. Come back and take a look !!

So elephants in Thippasandra are not so bad after all ;-)
