I missed out on the California State Fair, but fortunately, I found out about the LA County Fair and that it was opening the same weekend we were going to be in LA for a wedding. SCORE!!! So, as soon as we landed in LA, dealt with some car rental issues, and checked into our hotel, we headed straight for the fair. I hadn't eaten anything but two donuts for breakfast, so by the time we entered the gates of the fairgrounds at 7:30pm, I was famished and about ready to eat a horse.
First food stand we saw:
A Ginormous Sausage Hot Dog
It was the size of my arm! The kicker was that The Boy and I EACH this giant sausage. We were just that hungry. We ate most of it - The Boy threw away the bun and I had a couple of bites of the bun.
My first deep fried twinkie, which I thought just tasted like fried dough.
My last fair food of the night - Grilled Corn on the Cob. MY MOST FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD!!!
Don't I look just lovely with this corn in my mouth?
Although I didn't get to spend 10 hours at the fair as I would have liked to, it was a good time overall. The best part was that the sun wasn't out anymore so it was a beautiful cool night. We got to see the OUR BODY exhibit - really interesting but a bit creepy nonetheless. It's amazing how meticulous the surgery skills were to prep those bodies for display.
I'll have to try extra hard to make the state fair next year!
