On Saturday night, Kyle, Jayme, Wildna, Haydee, the girls, Heather, and I went to Torres Vedras for, what I think translates to, "The Rural Fair." It was surprising to see how similar it was to the county fairs I've been to at home. There were hot dog stands, treats that smelled a lot like elephant ears, cotton candy, and the rip-off you'll never really win that big screen tv for knocking the cans down with a pitched ball games.There were displays from all the tractor dealers in the area though the tractors were only the small ones. Neither the roads nor fields are big enough for the BIG tractors. There were the rides, too. Emilia and Audra both got to ride in a boat on a merry-go-round. Emilia has told us that Disneyland will be like the fair several times over the past few days. I hope she isn't disappointed. ;)
While it was nice to see and smell some familiar things, I think I prefer the beach both here and at home.
