The Circus is Coming to Town

As I walked to the beach today, I noticed the biggest news to hit the town in two years; the circus is coming to town. Live animals like lions and tigers will be unleashed for the public. It should be a spectacle for the ages. For anyone who read and/or saw “Water for Elephants,” it’s pretty much a traveling circus like that.


I hit the beach today, and it was clear that the bulk of the people who are coming here this year are here right now. Tomorrow is Ferraugusto, the big Italian summer holiday. After August 15, this place will quickly become the ghost town it was back in July.
