Growing up in a small town the county fair was one of the highlights of the summer. Now living in the city I haven't been to a county fair in years so when the S.O. saw a billboard for the O.C. Fair and suggested we go I had a hit of nostalgia and was all for it!
In the heat and humidity first stop was to get refreshing adult beverages. After that, as I am a completely unbiased thrill seeker and lover of all roller coasters it was time for some rides. They had all the classics, some with new names, and my all time favorite "carnie ride" - the Zipper. I got to experience some new attractions that I feel need mentioning for all you fellow fair lovers, definitely check out Insanity and Speed. There's only one way to describe them as crazy drop, flip-you-upside-down swing type of rides.
Now, one of the main reasons I think anyone goes to the fair is for the amazingly greasy, artery clogging fair food. I controlled my #innerfatgirl and limited myself to one bacon wrapped turkey leg and one powdered sugar covered funnel cake - YAY for self control!
If you're feeling a little fun-loving and don't mind the dust and the pigsty smell OR you just have a hankering for a turkey leg as big as your head and deep fried everything - you know where to go.
