C -Carnival

When you grow up in a little tiny town....there is  huge excitment if a carnival comes.



One time they had a bear you could wrestle  and win a $100.00  One of our towns people (missing a screw or two) gave it go and supposedly was winning when they called it off.  I was too small to remember it,  but it is a great story.




Such wonder.........



and oh that cotton candy......
 makes my mouth water.

YUM, I think I would trade the 'Carnival' for the 'Cotton Candy' :) so fun!

We have an amazing Carnival in Leicester UK. It's the Carribean Carnival with lots of Jerk Chicken and Dumplings. We also have cotton candy but we call it candifloss.

I'm blogging A to Z too at A to Z of Nostalgia

We visited our local county fair for the first time in years last fall and had a wonderful time. So many pretty colors.

just stopping by from the A to Z Challenge. I think carnivals can be exciting even if you're not from a small town, they are cheaper than the big amusement parks, so when you can't afford the big ones the little traveling carnivals are great!
