We just got back from Roadtrip #8 in Macon, GA. It was an awesome trip!! So, before we head out on the next trip, we went to the North Florida Fair! The fair is always famous for it's fried foods... they fried everything!!... They had fried/breaded zucchini, Mushrooms, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Onions, green tomatoes, okra, pickles, etc :) I had a lot of it too - YUM! Now, I'd heard of fried Snickers & twinkies (which they had) but they also had FRIED OREOS & PEANUTBUTTER CUPS :) The fair was cool. They had a shark show and a sea lion show... but our favorite was the pig races :) haha!!! It was hilarious!! Aashini was close up to the race until the pigs came - then she crawled up into Adam's lap really fast :) (as seen below) :) Pig races! haha! Cracks me up!
Within the hustle and bustle of the Old part of our city, is the largest M0sque in our country! It's really big and impressive. It is one of the few M0sques that women can enter, so it was really neat for me to get to go inside. The building of it begain in 1650 and it took 6 years and 5,000 men to complete!
We got to climb up in one of the Minarets (the one on the left) and get a really great view of the city.
Afterwards we walked through a few markets. One of the markets had tons of different kinds of car parts! Every shop had their specialty... hubcaps, headlights, brake drums, etc... this pic below is of the car door shop :)
