polaroid tuesday: week thirty-one

Taken by Brave at the fair.
week thirty one
Love True's face! She was angry and crying her head off because she didn't ride the elephant.

I hated to see her so sad and crazy about it, but riding an elephant for $14 dollars (for ben and her) just once around, which lasts about a minute and a half, at the same time sharing the animal with two other strangers, just seems to be a bit excessive. That company is making a killing off that poor elephant as there are long lines to ride it.

  1. So cute! This will definitely need to be the picture used in her senior yearbook in the baby tribute section!

  2. I just thought true was making the same face as her daddy in the pic. :) Brave did a great job taking the pic...love it! That's really sad that they would charge so much to ride an elephant...if all the parents would not give in to their kids, they could lower the price if the parents refused,but oh well.

  7. I'm definitely in the camp of cheaper prices at the OC Fair, after spending $9 each on some questionable hamburgers, we didn't even end up going on any rides. At least there is plenty of "people watching" to engage in. ;)

  9. I know I shouldn't have smiled so much at a pic where she is so upset. But, I love how sometimes you (the parents) have to smile/laugh when they are so upset and there's nothing (barring shelling out $14) to do about it.

  10. I hate animal rides anywhere outside of real ranches and zoos. Here in NYC the horses/carriages around central park are beyond heartbreaking.

    P.S- I have that skirt too! (and still no idea how to wear it!)
