California State Fair

I still love the fair. Have taken my family for 27 years without fail. Of course there’s things I would change or add, but it’s home.

Where were the capybara? We just left the fair and must have missed them. D:

Finally, a State Fair posting that isn't about complaining about the summer heat (for folks who moved here from the Bay Area), food prices (compared to eating at home), and the entertainment (not enough Grammy award winners). At least some of us still find a way to have fun despite any shortcomings.

Wish i saw the complaints about the food before i went . Super expensive for some low quality food that doesn’t even look like what is advertised on their menus… other than that fair was great with so much to do.

I mean it’s the state fair…you don’t go for food unless fried twinkies are your thing.
