Circus, Earth Hour, prediction...

On Saturday - 28 th of March - Anja and me visited the Danish National Circus - Circus Dannebrog. Both of us hadn't seen circus with animals since our childhood. I also had a personal reason: I used to work in circus - The Great Moscow State Circus in England- so I was just simply curious what's the differences and similarities between the two circus. At the beginning of the show there was a short movie about the history of Danneborg Circus and the way to put up the tent was also presented. But the main difference is there are animals in the show: horses, dogs and elephants.
The funny thing is the big top - tent - of this circus is really similar to the circus I used to work. You can see here!
The main attraction was the elephant act: they were kneeing, turned around, stood on their heads,...etc. It was also very nice to see the jumping and swinging dogs. One of them could count as well. The trainer wrote a number onto a small blackboard and the dog barked that much times, what number was on the board.
The act with horses was really beautiful. I was really nervous when a man stayed on the back of the horse and jumped through a lit hoop and he arrived to the back of the horse again.
The show was very different, what I had seen before...You can see some pictures of the show below! : )




After the circus there was a party our dormitory, which was organised by Lilla. By the time most of the people had arrived, the time was nearly 20.30, so we prepared to the Earth Hour by liting candles and tealights and switched off all of the lights, electricity our dormitory. It was really cosy, indeed.
Then we had a small 'seance': Noémi brought her gypsy card with her and she started to predict for those, who asked for it.



It was very exciting and little bit scary in the same time: sitting in the dark and hear your past, present and close future. I was always little bit sceptic about prediction, but what she said, almost everything was right!
I really enjoyed that afternoon and evening! : )
