Let's go to the circus!

Last Wednesday we went to the Aquatic Bellucci Circus. They were 3 days in Slobozia, and they are now in the coast (Mamaia).
The origins of this circus go back to 1800 in Rome, where Emilio Montesacro Bellucci lived. At this time he conducted a well-known pharmacy. His three children, medical students, helped him in this profession, but one of them, Armando, fell in love with Maria Lelli, who was working in a small circus at that time. From this relationship rises the long and happy marriage of the Bellucci family with the magical world of the circus. (You can read more about this story here).

We spent 3 hours in the circus, the first hour with the story of a pirate who is searching for his love, a women with a white dress. In this part we could see dancers, acrobats, jugglers... And a second part with animals like hippos, penguins, snakes, turtles, seals, pelicans...




















Every day the circus was full and  we want to wish them a lot of more success!!! And we also want to thank them because they treated us very good!
