eisoj5So the carnival is in town for the weekend and this year we actually knew about it, and thus, went! :) We went on a few rides; that spinny one that involves using centrifugal force to hold you against the wall, one that was like flying like Superman, the pirate ship thing (only it was called Pharoah's something-or-other) and...another spinny thing. Ronnie went on "Ring of Fire", which I steadfastly refused to ride.
Also, we met up with Paul, Becky, Susan & Hugh and some assorted other work-friend-people, including a couple of previous interns. For some reason, only the interns went on rides, while Hugh and this other guy were totally focused on trying to do this one game that involved climbing up a rope ladder that flips really easily. It was kind of funny, actually, because we're all a bunch of scientists standing around analyzing the way the carny guy climbed it, and offering (mostly useless) advice as to how Hugh should approach it.
Also also, I got to have cotton candy :)
