Circus

After a long time, I went to the Circus. In fact as kids, one of the good memories that we all have is going to the circus. Two things I liked about this circus (Circus Vazquez) is that it had artists from different parts of the world. Like the Malkhamb artist who came from India.

The Bingo Dance Troupe came from Kyiv Ukraine.

One of the highlights of the show was the capability of Housch-ma-Housh to keep everyone in splits. He too is from Ukraine.

Cyclist Pavel Valla who is a Czech- British with a Spanish heart was not deterred by the fifteen wheels in his cycle when it came to do the balancing act. (see video)

The juggling act by the brothers was fun to watch (wonder if they are twins)

Good to see that the hula hoop is back in action which was a craze in the 60s

Had a chat with the Malkhamb lad (Hasan Ansari) who is from Chembur - Mumbai. He reminded me of my friend Vesavkar who was also from Chembur and was good at Malkhamb.

The trapeze artist performing without safety nets gives one the goose bumps, but she was good at it.

The team from Mongolia gave a good performance. It was all a matter of perfect timing.

The Final bow was very impressive.

Oh, I forgot to mention the second thing that I liked. It is the fact that this circus was performed without any animals.
