Come see the animals, eat cotton candy and play carnival games at the Orange County Fair! The theme this year is "Say Cheese!" Kids are free on Tuesdays, and adults are $9. Parking is $5, preferred parking is $10. Fair hours are 12 noon to midnight. Kids can also buy wristbands on Tuesdays for $20 for unlimited rides. Some rides do not allow open toe shoes (I think the bigger carnival rides). Tom Jones and Shiela E. play that night at the Pacific Amphitheatre (additional ticket required). We will meet at 12 noon at the blue gate across from Vanguard University. Address is 88 Fair Drive, Costa Mesa, take the 55 freeway south toward Newport Beach and exit Del Mar/Fair Drive.
