A few notes on the Clam Festival in Yarmouth, Maine this past weekend...
Rides were great but the lines long. And it now costs more to go on a few rides with your loved one than it does to go to a Sea Dogs game. Wierd...
When is Yarmouth going to learn to close all the roads around the Festival. I know people need to get to and from their houses but c'mon. The off ramp from Route 1 to Main Street was open to traffic thus causing children running from the crafts/food section to dodge traffic to get to the fun rides. Also
a driver collided head on into a group of cyclists that caused some serious injuries. That may be the driver's fault for not realizing that barriers are put up to make sure you don't go onto the race path....
If you go with your lady to a carnival I believe it is mandatory to win her at least one plush animal. And make sure you choose the easiest game so you don't look like a complete moron.
Lastly, when choosing rides. Make sure you're own love of extreme sports and speed doesn't interfere with her need to be on the ground and going slower.... Barf bags may be necessary.
