Ringling Circus Museum, Sarasota

A friend had recommended the Ringling circus museum in Sarasota and it was really impressive.
Many of the exhibits showed the circus during its golden age around the 1920'ies.
Mia tried a tight rope

 and a horse

 A big model showed all the details from the circus train, to the kitchen tent and the main tent

 The outside was very nice as well. There was a great playground

 

There was a beautiful mansion build in the 1920'ies by the bay

There was also am exhibit with circus trailers - one that was used for a human canon. Mia liked the books in the little library there

When we left we saw a beautiful sunset

We didn't even have time to check out the art collection in another building. Maybe next time
