Big Apple Circus



On Sunday May 17th the Sunday Excursions group traveled to Queens, NY to see the Big Apple Circus. Aboard the South East Consortium bus we headed to Cunningham Park to eat subway sandwiches for lunch. After lunch we took in the beautiful day as we walked to the circus tent to prepare for our show.

The performances kept us on the edge of our seat as we watched contortionist, jugglers, trampolining, tumbling, plate spinning, flying trapeze, quick change and more! Some of the highlights for our circus goings were the acts that involved animals such as a "Living Carousel" with real live camels, horses, mini horses and lamas. Also the "Down on the Farm" act that involved horses, mini horses and dogs doing a variety of tricks, so cute! Francesco the clown kept us laughing and entertained between acts. 

After the circus we headed back to Mamaroneck and ate dinner at Frankie and Fanucci on Mamaroneck Avenue. We started our meal with mozzarella sticks and bruschetta, than a caesar salad and for the big finale we had enjoyed their wood oven pizza and it was simply delicious!! 

It was a wonderful day and a really fun trip! Fun was had by all!
