The Big E

After getting Kylee's good news we decided to go out and do a little celebrating. So, on Saturday, we decided to head off to the Big E. Or "The Big Eat" as some like to call it, because, literally, you could do nothing but EAT all day long and still not eat everything they have to offer. The Big E is THE largest fair in the northeast. It runs for almost 3 weeks each and every September and attracts over 200,000 people a week! It's insane! And we were one of the crazy families that attempted to go on a weekend. EVERYONE tells you to avoid the fair on Saturday or Sunday. They draw twice as many people as they do during the week, traffic and parking can be hell and inside the gates is nothing but a sea of people. We didn't listen to EVERYONE. We got lucky.


We didn't hit any traffic, we found a great parking spot and we got to see a lot of the fair in the 4 hours that Shane let us explore. It was a GREAT time.


We can't wait to go back and do it again next year. On a Saturday. So there.
