Only a few days of my vacation are left, after tomorrow I'm coming back to Khabarovsk, a couple of days I'll come to myself and take the accumulated orders - and they are already pretty good)
So, there will be new drawings soon. I want not to forget about drawing for myself! About my ideas, because for half a year I have not drawn anything for myself - there was no time)
And now I want to tell you how we went with the girls to the circus performance of Zapashnykh Brothers "Terrible force".
I will start by saying that I love Circus very much! I'm talking about the real circus - not the charlatans and sadists. So I was really looking forward to our trip. We bought our tickets 20 days in advance for very good seats - almost perfect. And going to the Zapashny Brothers we had no doubt that there will be a great program - animals, acrobats, clowns. After all they always positioned themselves as the best Moscow circus. But to be honest guys, we were disappointed. I remember circus programs in my childhood - there was always a celebration, there were complicated interesting and varied acts. And this performance... well, it was like it didn't reach the point. There were no clowns, almost no animals - for five minutes there were parrots who did almost nothing - they flew around the arena floor, did a couple of simple tricks and were taken away; there was a baby chimp who just walked around the arena ring and they took him in their arms and took away. There were a lot of lions and tigers that were just lying down beautifully, a couple of cats sat on their hind legs, one tiger jumped over the ring and that was it... But I will say right away that the animals are very well groomed, well groomed, waddled up. If they didn't want to do something nobody hurt them or made them do it. One lion just decided to cuddle in the middle of the room and the arena) No one forbade him - people laughed and clapped) Charismatic and happy cat) I subscribe to the Zapashnykh brothers and their assistant - the animals are kept there in good conditions, they are loved and cared for and everything is the best. But just going to these famous animal trainers you expect more. Maybe the cats certainly were not in the mood. But anyway it was very nice to look at these well groomed cats) The rest of the numbers were gymnasts and we really liked only a couple of them. Number with a swing - the gymnasts performed a very difficult number, bouncing in pairs, including on stilts. It was very cool and hot and people probably applauded them the loudest. And we liked very much the vaulting on the horses. Just great guys, very cool cowboy-style number! And the horses are so beautiful, so well groomed! Chic! And that's all - the rest of the rooms seemed somehow dull and as they were not properly diluted with other disciplines - not played as brightly as they could. I do not want to sound ungrateful - people did very difficult and cool acts, but for some reason the magic of circus for us was not in them. I think it's not the performers' fault they did it without a hitch, but the director's. But in any case, we are grateful for the show and very glad we went! And I decided to go to the circus more often - we have one in Khabarovsk and it's very popular!
