Hawaii county fair

[EightFingers]

I've been here all this time and never knew about it.
Thinking about going, but what does it cost? What's there?

8fings,

It's a cash trap. But, BUT, it is the closest tweens will get to a date--meaning that its a slice of life, albeit lame, and a bit of mainland lost (like drive in theaters).

A slice of life. When are you going to go on a ferris wheel on the east side or anywhere on the island?

Cheers, Kirt

$7.00 admission - We have always had a good time, but have not been in a couple years.

Looks like it's $3 on Sunday, not old enough to get in free....
Thanks for the link Stizz.

There is usually a major deluge of rain at some point during the fair's run. One year people were kayaking in the parking lot.

Been there a couple of years ago. Go when it's free (last days) or cheaper. I went when it was free. I know, cheap bastard. Anyway, I park AWAY from the line of cars.... We like to walk anyway. The first time I parked was in the free field... don't ask me why I tell you this...

So, anyway, Just stick with the ferris wheel, unless you got a really good back, again, don't ask...

Have fun!

MY daughter took our grandaughter and her little friend. They got in free by taking 3 cans of food. But, the place got their money back when my daughter put in money and a card to buy more rides, and the machine devoured her card. My wife and I have taken her before too.

Hmm what's there? Greasy artery clogging local plates, lot's of people and families, some cool exhibits, overpriced games with worthless plastic prizes, 3 minute rides on 50 year old machines that whip you around 50 feet in the air, and that's about it. Enjoy.
