Found a carnival atmosphere at our fountain!

[pjflan7]

We went back the next day on a warm Sunday afternoon to play some more at one of the downtown fountains and we ran into a "youth salute event" with some inflatables, food booths etc....some typical fun carnival like stuff. After playing in the water for a while, the girls, of course, wanted to go play on the inflatables etc so these shots are on the carnival side of the day

Who can get their velcro bean bag the farthest down the pipeline? the tether stretches but not too much!



Mandy as the velcro girl. She is wearing a velcro suit that she wears and then jumps around and eventually jumps up onto the wall where she gets......stuck. Sometimes the kids can push off but most of the time they have to be pulled off! Mandy just pushed off and is about to fall flat on her back!



Lisa just had to try and though the suit is obviously not her size. I put her in it and zipped her up good and tight and then had to physically throw her up on the wall....Yeah, that's her dad there who just threw her up there......Hey I was out in the fountains too and playing upon girls' orders! My wife took this particular shot.



The grand finale....Mandy is done with the fountain and the goggles are coming off....time to dry off and go home!

What great fun was had !! I wish we had a fountain / square like that near us ! That second shot is wonderful I love the look on her face and the way the lines play together. Nice work

First time they had ever put on a velcro suit...heck, I even wanted to do it!

I think putting myself in a velcro suit and plastering myself up against a wall would be such great fun! Awesome! Great shots and great fun.

Mandy and Lisa have so much fun. Great captures and so colourful. I just love to see them playing and having so much fun. These pictures really show that to full effect. Thanks for sharing the fun. Now that would be one for DPS. Patrick in a velcro suit..lol..Any chance?

Looks like you had a great time. Nice shots of all the action too.

Those are great shots!

My 2 younger kids love those velcro walls. I try to re-enact it here at the house with duct tape and the ceiling but they say its just not the same
