2009 Lompoc Flower Festival










































































































The 2009 Lompoc Flower Festival is in full swing. Ted and I went to the Flower Festival in the early evening, and despite it being chillier than we anticipated, we had a great time. Most of the arts and crafts booths were shut down for the evening but we were able to ride rides and eat yummy food.
Picture #1: Beth and Ted in line to ride the Ferris wheel.
Picture #2: A view of the Ferris wheel we rode.
Picture #3: We rode the Ferris wheel with two of the cutest girls you ever hope to meet. They were super chatty and their smiles and laughter were infectious. They asked us all kinds of questions and told us all about the different rides they rode during the day. So cute.
Picture #4: A view from the top of the Ferris wheel.
Pictures #5-6: After the Ferris wheel we rode the Himalaya. I have not ridden this ride in probably 15 or more years and it did not disappoint. It was as fun as ever.
Picture #7: We worked up an appetite walking around and riding rides so we indulged in the food. I had Danish Aebleskiver and Ted had a Philippine noodle dish.
