Callum says if he joins the circus, he'll be a jumper.

What an incredibly amazing show. Two years have passed since Cirque last performed alongside the pier in Santa Monica, the grand chapiteau rising in dayglo yellow peaks against the descending foggy night. And how beautiful just to watch the boys' faces in a state of enchantment and wanderlust.

A great day all round. Thanks to Blipfoto for the lovely surprise this morning in featuring my journal. With Wednesday's Blip being scheduled for publishing in the Los Angeles Times next week, and 500px picking up one of my images in their new commercial licensing launch, I'd say it's been a fab week.

PS you get all of about 5 seconds to capture your kids in front of this before the line behind starts to murmur...
