2012 OC Fair – Costa Mesa, CA

We made our annual trip to the Orange County Fair over the weekend.
As usual, you can find crazy food at the Fair, including deep fried cereal, bacon wrapped everything, tons of meat, and my favorite, the jalapeno and cheese corn dog at Dogzilla.




Have you ever been on a ski lift? If not, you can ride one at the Fair… minus the skis, the snow and the mountain. The SkyRide takes you from one end of the fairground to the other:


Once you are on the SkyRide, you get some nice views of the Fair:








Although Budweiser is one of my least favorite beers, I love the Clydesdales:


The Fair reopens on Wednesday and runs until Sunday, August 12. There are some pretty big events happening in the Fair’s last week, including the following concerts at the Pacific Amphitheatre:
August 08: All-American Rejects
August 09: Heart
