🐘🐘🐘2010 February 1,Monday, Waiting and Watching the Elephants


I took Lora and her kids to Huntsville we parked next to the Train Depot. We had to bundle up because there was a cold February morning.
The streets near the train depot of Huntsville was lined with people of all ages waiting for the elephants

We went there to watch the Barnum Bailey Circus Elephants embark from the gray railway cars onto the streets and Parade down to the VBCC. 
The parade of elephants and their handlers were escorted by the Huntsville Police Department.

The Elephants wore a leather headless that encircled their head and down the front of their noses with a blue sign that read “The Greatest Show on Earth.
The elephants held each others tails as they paraded down the streets.
There were at least ten or more elephants, ranging in size.
It felt very good to be inside a warm restaurant after standing in the cold for over and hour.


We ate lunch at Cracker Barrel in south Huntsville.
