One reason I love carnival rides (aesthetically), is because they haven't changed much since the good ol' days. The ferris wheel is still the most prominent structure, everything is unavoidably bright, and jumbo elephant ears are as popular as ever. Though I regret to say Ruth and I forgot to get one :(

We all rode the kiddie roller coaster, my nephew went in a fun house, and we all raced little clowns in cars to win a snake that provided much entertainment on the way home.

My gosh, you can take a mean photo! The photo of the two ferris wheels is great.

I love the carnival too - it's just so colourful and retro. But very overpriced here in Australia, and usually raining in my local city!

i've been reading your blog for awhile and just have to say you remind me so much of the main female character in 2008's Brideshead revisited! Very good movie for the fashion, and you two could be twins.

Matroskin, elephant ears are basically fried dough, with butter, sugar, and cinnamon on top. They are so very delicious, but something you should really only eat once a year when the fair comes to town ;)

Old Lady Chic, I have yet to see that! Really want to, it's on my movie list ;)
