Thanks for the comment Chau:) Good luck in contest:)
My favorite thing to do at the fair is walk through the halls where they sell all the cool things from crazy mops to beef jerky. Its always fun seeing all the new ideas people come up with.
I love that as well Robert:) Great times! Good luck in my contest and have a blast at the fair!
I have never been to the LA County fair, but my favorite thing to do at Del Mar fair is to eat. I love trying all the unique foods you can only get at the fair. The baby animals are also a favorite of mine.
Those sounds like some great memories Tiffany! Thanks for sharing:)
I never been to LA county fair. It would be cool to go this year.
Awesome Ruby:) Good luck:)
My favorite part of the fair is all the animals! Not a big ride person.
I feel you Kristy! I LOVE the animals:) The pigs just born at the OC Fair this year were so adorable:)
Seeing the excitement on my daughters face on all the kiddie rides is the highlight for me. Precious memories!! 🙂
That sounds awesome:) Good luck and have fun Devon:)
I have never been to the LA County Fair but would absolutely love to experience it. I’ve gotten the chance to attend the OC Fair for two years and I love every aspect of it: the delicious food, the entertainment, the attractions, and the environment as a whole (especially when I was able to take my boyfriend for the first time – he loved it!). I will definitely be dragging him along for a treat before our schedules get busy with school.
Lisa,
I also love the OC Fair. I threw a contest for them this year as well:) The fair is always a fabulous time! There are so many great things to do there.:) Have fun:)
I love the fair! The people, sights, and food of course. lol. Love taking photos too.
But we have friends who are vendors, and we get to see them every year.
That all sounds very cool:) Thanks for the comment Ali:) Good luck in the contest!
My favorite things are the rides. My kids love them!
Awesome 🙂 Good luck int he contest:)
Too many yummy food, I would love to go only for food.
The food is pretty amazing Gangesh:)
We don’t have a county fair over here… but it looks like a good time and great food.
No county fair?? I thought everywhere in US had them..I guess you have to come visit.:)
From the looks of it I am certain that you really have a great time Daniele. Would you be so kind to share something about the Strawberry Fried Twinkie From Chicken Charlie’s, you did say that its one of you’r favorites, I really wonder about the taste. I hope its not that sweet. Thank You in advance.
Hello John:) The deep fried strawberry twinkie is pretty amazing..They cook it just perfectly and it is battered very lightly as to not overdo the deep fried portion.:) You can ask for lesser strawberry syrup if you don’t want it too sweet and there is decadent powdered sugar in top.:) Yum!!!
Thanks for sharing, I am hungry now after seeing all these photos! Looks delicious!
Too funny:) There is some great food there! Thanks!
Oh.My.Word – our County fair does not even come close to this!!! Wish we were closer to LA!!
What do they have at your county fair? I am wondering how they differ? Is this one just bigger? 🙂
I love county fairs. I can’t wait for ours. My son is not in 4H so he will be competiting in events I am sure.
Very cool:) Have fun at the fair! 🙂

I Love to eat the food. I smell BBQ and then as I’m eating bbq i smell something else tasty. it is like i’m prego but not LOL Question? How do you go when it is 1 million degrees hot out?
I cannot go when it is a million degrees out..I prefer to go in the evening when the weather cools down…I only went in the heat for the media preview:)
I don’t think I have ever been to the LA County Fair but I would love to take my 7 year old so we could eat deep fried everything.
You would love it Carrie! You must check it out:) Thanks for the comment!!
