The Seminole County Fair

I visited the 2009 Seminole County Fair a few weeks ago in the parking lot of the Seminole Towne Center Mall in Sanford, FL. My definition of a county fair must be different than Seminole County's, because I would consider this event a carnival. It needs farm animals to be a fair (besides from a pony)...

These pictures were taken at the 2008 Seminole County Fair that takes place in the Seminole Town Center Mall parking lot in Sanford, Florida. The pictures were taken on April 2, 2008...

It seems like small carnivals normally don't have dark rides. This one had two! The murals on the front of these rides are always so much better than ride itself.

Ghost Pirates Dark Ride:




Haunted Mansion Dark Ride:


And that's the Seminole County Fair. It really shouldn't be called a fair though. Fairs should have farm animals and giant vegetable competitions as well as rides. The Seminole County Fair actually did once have the whole fair experience and was held at the site of the old dog track in Casselberry, Florida. After the dog track closed, the fair moved to this mall parking lot, and lost the farm animals. Without this stuff though, it's just a carnival...
