Last week Aaron and I went to the Calgary Stampede. I have been every year but 2 since I was like... one maybe? I really do love it. I guess that's just how it goes when you're born and raised in Calgary... the only thing is... once you hit a certain age it's not that fun anymore. When you're a kid, you go on rides all day until you can't walk anymore and get a little treat or two and it's a blast! When you get older you kinda go to be cool and independent and hang out with your friends, go on a few rides maybe, then when you get a bit older and settle down it's nice to get out but Aaron and I don't drink so it's not always that fun being around drunk people... and unless you want to spend hundreds of dollars on everything it's not that great, especially being poor students =P. We did go on a few rides though! We also got to see Theory of a Deadman live, Super Dogs is always fun too and we were able to make it and get front row seats! I personally love to watch people and the Stampede is full of different people so I enjoyed that too... we stayed there until the fireworks and then went home.
Then a few days later we found out that a ride broke down... while people were riding it. I guess no one was seriously injured...pretty banged up I guess... buuut I think that's the last time I'm going on those rides.
Ps... Candy apples are my favorite - and if Aaron was writing this, the first thing he would tell you about is how yummy mini doughnuts are and how much he loves them and how they're also a rip-off haha
