“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” down the ride we go. Yes, I know, I am no ride expert. The rides I went on were definitely kiddie rides. It’s the middle of my summer break and we decided to check out the county fair. So a school friend of mine and I decided to go to the Alameda County Fair. It was a very interesting and fun place. It only sets up once a year. A nice place to hang out for all ages. The older people can enjoy the yummy food and the fun environment, while the younger kids can go on the rides at the fair. A place for all to have fun.
After the rides, we went to visit the animal section. An enclosed area full of numerous adorable bunnies and rabbits. There was also live horse racing and music concerts. The Fair was the perfect place to spend time with family. It was indeed a ‘Fair’ evening and as I hit the bed after the long fun filled day the memories were still vividly playing in my mind.
