Myrtle Beach is home to all kinds of attractions for people to come visit; permanent places that sit empty when the crowds go home. Though there are plenty of places like that, there is always one type of entertainment that goes to the crowd: the traveling circus. Traveling circus troupes have been a tradition for hundreds of years in one way or another and it's nice to see such an old piece of history being honored even in today's busy digital world.

The Cole Bros. Circus travels through South Carolina every year to entertain with high flying acrobatics, well trained exotic animals and comedic clown acts. I think my favorite part was the trapeze acts; maybe it's just because I am such a big fan of Batman, and I grew up reading about Robin's acrobatic past that was always represented so entertaining.
