In praise of the pop-up carnival

It must be an American thing,  the Carnival comes to town. These days the rides are loaded on the back of big rigs and they set up shop in parks, or parking lots.   We did see one once in Mexico, but did they learn about it here?P1080889No midway is complete without a Ferris Wheel.P1080879Kudos to mom for being willing to ride with Shira, who probably would have been happy to go up aloneP1080870Remember when we were kids and the lure of the big stuffed toy was just too much.P1080873Especially if it is a popular character like the minions.P1080871But when the challenge is toss the ring on the ducky, I think I’ll stick with photos instead.P1080909Riding in a car is fun!P1080914But nothing beats the thrill of the big slide.P1080896Either aloneP1080919Or with dad.
