Seeing a Circus Performance

Paula: Ta-da! We’re here. This is your big surprise. 

Roman: We’re going to the circus? 

Paula: You got it in one! It’s going to be great. There’ll be clowns and acrobats1, trapeze artists and lion tamers. 

Roman: I haven’t been to the circus since I was a kid. 

Paula: That’s the point. I thought this would be a nostalgic experience for both of us, and let us feel like kids again. 

Roman: I’m not sure... 

Paula: Come on! We’ll miss the first act. I think there’ll be jugglers, magicians, and tightrope2 walkers, too. 

Roman: Great. 

Paula: Listen! I can hear the ringmaster from here. Let’s go! 

Roman: When you said that you had a surprise for me that would make me feel young again, this wasn’t exactly what I envisioned. 

Paula: I know. It’s even better, right? 

Roman: If you say so.
