Along with the fair games, fair food is also present from Wednesday to Sunday, from red velvet funnel cakes to fried Oreos (which are extremely good). The was one particular stand that was selling possibly the best fruit punch I had ever consumed. Below is a picture from my TwitPic account:
Having attended the fair last year, and summer of '08, one would think I would have been on some rides. Well, that statement is false. Up until this year, I hadn't stepped foot in a queue for any ride. I went on the Zipper (below) and I swear that ride gave me a concussion. Later that night, my friend Jordon (above right) joked that next time he rode it, he would need to bring his helmet.
Then on Sunday, I rode the Rainbow. This ride looked pretty intimidating. It looked ass if your stomach would stay at the top of the 360 degree rotation. I got on, and it turned out the ride was not how I imagined it at all. I didn't lose my stomach, or have that feeling once during the ride, but I did lose my voice briefly from profuse yelling and screaming in order to make the ride more enjoyable. Although, it had one of the best views at the fair. After getting off the ride, my knees were very unstable, thus making my legs wobble (spaghetti legs).
Getting to the fair this year consisted of taking the ART (Arlington Transit) bus, and one ride from Jordon's mom. Next year, however, if my parents think I'm responsible enough to get my license in April, I will be able to drive (which is extra exciting in my point of view). In order for that to happen, I need to get more responsible and show my parents that I am.
