I am in Italy at a village called the land of laughs (Monte San Giusto) lots of clown madness happening -- Michael Christensen is here, Big Apple Circus founder ...
Monte San Giusto is a small village in the Italians mountains ... and they are crazy for clown. A huge red nose hangs off the clock tower, hundreds of houses hang balloons, clown effigies, puppets, colored windows, and everywhere people are hungry for the year's new crazies for the festival.
What's next for Johnny: November clown festival in Vitoria-Gasteiz, capital of Álava province in Northern Spain – and of the autonomous Basque region.
