After Seaport Village, I took Gigi and Brody to the fair (thanks to the Gibsons for the free tickets!). We loved walking around the livestock area, and even got to learn about milking cows and see lots of animals. I really loved the succulent displays in the garden department too.

Later, David met us there so we could indulge in our fair share (get it, fair? :) ) of fried food for dinner (between us we had fried cheese, fried avocado and a fried cheeseburger. No joke.). We looked around the photography and hobby exhibits a little but after a little grown-up fun we had to head back over to the animals.

Gigi’s ride for the day was a pony ride which she loved. And then, as timing would have it, we were able to catch the Pig Races again. Yep, that’s right, we had already seen it earlier, but wanted Daddy to experience its awesomeness as well. I loved how the Pork Chop stand was juxtaposed right by the pig races. :)

All in all, a fun afternoon was had by the Bennetts at the San Diego County Fair. Always a favorite summer tradition for me.

Here’s the whole photo album.
