Night at the Fair

Last night I took my eight year old daughter and a friend of mines eight year old son to the fair.  We live in a little town so the fair reflects out town, only 5 adult rides: Spider, Pharro, Scrambler, Zipper & Parasail.  First one we did was the Spider and the boy got sick to his stomach but didn't vomit. So we went on to the Pharro (giant swing that looks like a boat), again he got sick.  Then I let them run through the little kids maze called the fire house.  Then they wanted to go on the Scrambler, he once again got ill to his stomach.  I just knew before the night was over I would be covered in vomit, but I wasn't.  After we got off the Scrambler I told Jay (my friends son) that he needed to take a rest, but insisted that he and my daughter go on it again with their friend from school so I let them.  He was of course feeling real bad after that, so he and I sat out on the next ride while my daughter and the other kid went on the Zipper.  They rode a few more rides and played a few more games before we headed home.  As we were leaving this little blonde boy about 3 years old comes running up to me, he waves and says "Hey, will you come ride the Pharro with me"? It was so cute, but I told him I couldn't because I had to get my kid home.  Lots of fun, no long lines because it's such a small town so that was nice. 

I like rides, such as roller coasters and the fun ones like that.  Favorite ride ever was at Six Flags over Texas.  They strap you into this suit and hook a bungie cord to your back and you get to go flying like 200 feet in the air, I did that one when I was 17...I think.  I also liked the Ejection Seat in Branson Mo, it was kinda like the other one I was talking about but instead of a suit you're put in a steal cage that is hooked up to bungie cords.  I could go on and on but I will stop right there.

Happy Friday
