The Country Fair with Ocean Air!

 
The fair is once again in town, so Thursday we made the annual trip to take in the sights, sounds, and of course the rides!  The slogan of the Ventura County fair is "The County Fair with Ocean Air", and Thursday it lived up to it's name!  While is was warm for Ventura (high of 86), it was very comfortable at the fair, which is located right at the beach, as a cool ocean breeze kept us feeling good!
 
Thursday was a wristband day, which means for the price of the wristband one can go on as many rides as desired rather than turn in tickets for each individual ride.  It's totally the way to go, especially with kids!  The big dilemma was whether or not to buy Olivia a wristband!  I had decided no, but when she saw the bus/train ride, she just had to go on it!  So I bit the bullet and bought her one, hoping she would go on other rides too!  And she did, but this ride was her favorite.  Thankfully the big kids were so excited that she wanted to do rides they were more than happy to go on this rather lame ride three times!
 
I tried to get a nice picture of the three kids, but Olivia decided to be Olivia!
 
Faith always loves the slides!  She went on the giant one too, but I wasn't able to get a picture of that one!
 
We were all able to go on the carousel, but Olivia would only ride on the sleigh! 
 

I love the look on Faith and Shane's faces on this ride!  Clearly they enjoyed it!
 
Shane really wanted to go on the swings!  He said it was his most favorite ride of the day!  The kids all had a great day!
