Today was the St. Matheus Carnival in Woodbridge New Jersey. It was fully equip with funnel cake, rides and a host of small screaming children. I went with my new friends Holly, Sierra, and Alexia. The event happens every year and its used to raise money for the church.

At the faire there was a host of different rides. One that spun you, one that dropped you, one that spun you backwards (!) and we of course tried all of them. The highlight of my entire night was stumbling off the “Danger Zone” too dizzy to walk straight and tripping over our own legs as we ran to our next adventure.

Although we do have fairs and parties similar to this Ive never been to something exactly like it. It was new and interesting and exciting! Its moments like this that I am going to miss after my final week here.
