It was a boring evening when one of my sister in-laws convinced us to go to the municipal hall (there was an event in line for the town fiesta.) Since my husband was here that time, we didn't hesitate. Well, he is the one carrying Caleb.
Thus, upon arriving we realized the event was in the bigger gym in the next Barangay. Though there were few food stalls and a hired singer it was quite boring to stay. Why not go to the Perya/Carnival? SIL suggested. It was located just a street away.
On our way saw these crunchy anchovies fried with sugar in one of the food stalls.
I was busy eating when I heard my son yelling, he was mad! Why? Simple because I didn't give him a taste. Well, as much as I wanted to share it with him, he SHOULD not yet.
Only a few walks and we arrived at the carnival. We were just on time as it was not too crowded and at the same time it was not only us.
There are only a few rides and some kids are already enjoying themselves.
Among those, this one caught my attention. Not too high and motion not that fast that I could bring Caleb for a ride.
In case my son would cry, can I go down? I asked the crew just to be sure!
The moment he said YES, I bought a ticket.
I forgot if this was photograph before or after.
When the rides started to move, I realized the iron lock served as harness was too small for my son's body frame. Holding him tight was necessary! He was quiet and I was waiting for him to cry but to my surprise he didn't.
It was only good for two but if we are in the amusement park, I am sure Caleb isn't allowed to ride yet.
On the top, I could hear mixed laughter, shout as there were also other rides. Somehow I could hear my heart beating while contemplating if my decision was right 😩. Yet, I realized the distance below the ground wasn't that high and it was moving slowly.
The thought made me calm and the rest of the minutes I spent enjoyable. After we were done, Caleb wasn't even satisfied and wanted to go back but naaa, I don't want to gamble again.
Here Vikings Ride, but I didn't ride here as I don't find it safe. If I am not yet a Mom maybe, but now there are things to consider.
Meanwhile, my husband was busy checking out other games while I was holding our son.
We bet here at color games and he won $3 which we paid in a tricycle going home since our son was already hungry. I forgot to bring him a bottle of milk. What about me? I did bet a couple of times but the game ended at break even 😆.
