Day 21: The Light of the Silvery Moon

Ahh, Family Fair days. So amazing. I have not had this much fun for a while. And so much good food! I had fries, shave ice, a smoothie, malasadas (all four are Family Fair Musts), pizza, a strawberry-flavored Italian soda, popcorn, a bite of corn on the cob (courtesy of Kendall), the amazing GUMBO for which I have been dying to taste all week, and then I topped it all off with with the Chocolate Pana Cotta (simply heavenly, man). I wanted to get the waffle dog but I figured that I didn't need to since our grade won free waffle dogs for the poster contest during the Fair Kick-Off. Bottom line: food adventures are the besterestest.


And then there were games: shooting colored balls with corks, hitting floating balls with smaller balls, using a hammer to launch a rubber frog on a lily pad pond, bouncing ping pong balls on lily pad bowls, etc. And then there were the shows: dancers, music bands, Jordan Segundo, stage bands, rock bands, solos, etc. And then there was a lot of working at the Info Booth (best booth ever), Craft Corner, and the Xtreme bounce houses. And even more fun things to do: henna tattoos, balloons, rides, etc.


The feeling I have now is the epitome of being on a roller coaster that only goes up. I can't believe that people have been having this kind of "high on life" feeling for years and I only got to experiences it fully this year--my last Family Fair as a student, too! I will most definitely be back working and taking advantage of all the fun, food, and games next year. As an alumni (baby)!
