Guess what? My Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop took me to something called a "carnival-circus" today! What can I say...I was just in awe of everything I saw and heard. At the carnival, I got a chance to ride on some really fun things, eat, walk, and run until I was ready to drop. My Mommy's friend, Marsha, came to the carnival too. They got on some rides together and both of them screamed a lot. My Pop-Pop got on some rides with me but there were other rides that the people at the carnival wouldn't let me get on with him because they said I was too little. My Grammy was just running around taking pics of everything in site!
At 7:00pm, the circus started and I saw a man walk across a wire with a pole, then he rode across the wire with a bike, and then he walked across the wire with a pole and a black hood on his head! There was one moment when everyone got real scared because he almost fell off the wire. Somehow, he didn't fall and we all clapped for him when he finished. Then, I saw two guys on something called "motorcycles" riding around in this big round ball! I thought they were going to crash into each other but they didn't. A clown came around and asked all the kids if they wanted a "coloring book?" Since I don't know how to color yet, I told Mommy she didn't have to get me one (Yeah, right!). Just as it began to get dark, all the lights on the rides came on and everything looked even better. Shortly after dark, we all headed for home. I give the carnival-circus 
Here are all the pics my Grammy took to share. There were so many that she put them all in grid blocks. Make sure you click on them so you can get the close-up view of all the sights! Grammy told me that there will be lots of fun things to do around Philly this week because we are going to celebrate something called "Independence Day" on July 4th. I'll even let you in on a little secret...if you click on the Sunoco Welcome America logo, there's a Philly Fun Guide schedule with all the things you can see and do this week hiding behind it.
FOOTNOTE: If you decide to go to the carnival-circus, admission is free. However, you may want to consider purchasing a wrist band for $ 20.00 (as opposed to tickets) so you can ride as much as you want at no extra charge. The cost for food is about the same as you would pay at the movies (higher than it needs to be). Pass it on!
