Carnival

We drove past the carnival when it was being setup on Thursday afternoon.  Sam saw the Ferris Wheel and asked what the very, very big steering wheel was all about.  I told him what it was called and he asked if he could get on it right now.  He asked if it went fast and I told him no (boy was I wrong on that one) and he asked again if he could ride it.

Today before nap I told him we would be doing something very fun after nap and he asked if we were going to ride the Ferris Wheel.  He was so excited, when I went to get him up he said "it is time to ride the Ferris Wheel, I am very very excited and so happy.  Are you happy?".

He loved all of the rides.  This carnival was run by people who LOVE to go fast; every ride was moving way faster than I have ever seen them go.  On one ride Megan was a little uncertain and leaned over and I watched the operator ease up on the pedal to slow the ride down until she was okay and then he floored it again.

We saved the Ferris Wheel for last.  I video'd it because that thing was flying.  I am thinking at least 3 rotations for every 1 of a regularly moving one.

Sam was not too happy to leave the carnival and asked if we could go back after dinner.
