My husband and I had a delightful day of learning, laughs and pure enjoyment! We thoroughly enjoyed the tasteful re-creation of the old time circus atmosphere, wonderfully restored circus wagons, and the Big Top show complete with elephants and talented, devoted performers. Kids will have fun, so so did we as adults! Too many photos to share, but here are two. Thank you Circus World for our FUNDAY MONDAY.

A great tour that fills you in on the Ringling’s Circus history. The mansion is wonderful, but there is a lot of construction. But even with that, we throughly enjoyed the tour and information. Brand new Bed & Breakfast, along with a beer garden opening in lat September.
