LA County Fair

On Labor Day, the hub and I decided to venture out to the LA county fair. We usually don't go opening weekend because of the crowds but with the entire weekend being $1 admission before 1 pm we couldn't resist. The fair is the fair. It's pretty much the same stuff every year but a must for us every summer, well usually me 'cuz I love the fair and the hub is great at indulging me. :-) And the best part of the fair is FAIR FOOD! We mostly looked though as opposed to ate. After our lunch we weren't really hungry anymore.

One of our traditions is to ride on one of the gondolas that takes you from one end of the fair to another. The hub is usually scared sh!itless every year and I am too but this is one of our must do's every year.


So much food at the fair. Some of the fair food that was being offered was deep fried white castle burgers, deep fried s'mores, deep fried frog legs, and zuchini weenis.


Chocolate covered bacon is supposed to be one of the newer fair foods. I wanted to give it a try but the hub convinced me not to.


We are pretty tame with our fair food choices and opted for some good 'ol barbecue. And as usual at the fair pretty pricey. All this cost us $26!



We also caught a few shows from the Peking Acrobats...


To the extreme canines stunt show....


And Splash Dogs!

I also love walking around the shopping place, to cool off after walking around in the heat, but to see the new products out there. And we've been going to the fair for so long we're starting to recognize the same demonstrators year after year. All in all, a fun day and we'll be there again next year!
