Britt and Dave spend a Sunday afternoon visiting the house (and the art museum) that John Ringling built

Still life with Rubens painting and elephant In the Ringling Art Museum courtyard (To the tune of "toreador" from "Bolero") Corridor! Welcome to my humble house, Cà d'Zan "Oh what a feeling / when you're dancin' on the ceiling" -- Lionel Richie It looks just like our house John Ringling slept here Mable's bed View from the second-floor balcony Leaves of glass Venetian inspiration The back façade of Cà d'Zan Daal admires the architecture A view from the front The front door The path to Cà d'Zan Entering Mable's rose garden Lovely lattice Roses and poses Inside the Ringling circus museum New duds for Daal? Naah, I don't think so A horse is a horse, of course, of course Back in the art museum Baroque hallway One last look at the art museum before we leave
