I'm back!!
09.07.04 (2:22 pm)   [edit]

We had a fab time! I don't want to be back at work. :)


The Renaissance Festival was really cool. We saw a joust and then wandered through all of the artisans' shops. My husband's brother ate one of the festival's specialties - an enormous turkey drumstick. It was just fun to absorb the atmosphere of all the costumed folks.


The State Fair was amazing - about 100 times the size of BC's PNE. We ate a ton of awful food. The insane food we ate included: deep-fried candy bars, a corndog (or Pronto Pup, the official State Fair name), a big cone full of little, warm chocolate chip cookies, accompanied by milk from the Dairy Association's all-you-can-drink milk booth, deep-fried gator (my husband), gator sausage (his brother), deep-fried cheese curds, and an enormous funnel cake with bavarian cream and chocolate. We got utterly, totally soaked on the river ride, saw frisbee-catching dogs, and collected a bag full of useless but fun freebies from the booths. I'd feel guilty about the food, but we walked around the fairgrounds for about 10 hours, so I'd say I burned it off.


More trip highlights to come...
