The Saddest Festival Ever!

There were three festivals in the LA area this weekend: Strawberry Festival, Guacamole Festival and the World Fair. Because of the distance and cost, Guacamole Festival was the clear winner.

Guacamole Festival...imagine colorful booths filled with unlimited guacamole for you to try. Some places that were so crowded, you could only taste the smell. Guacamole with mango, apple and chili. In one corner is the guacamole eating contest and in the other the best guacamole contest. Kids running around laughing and singing. Well, this is what I had in mind, but it was no where close to the real thing.

There must have been a maximum of 15 booths there. The closest thing to guacamole was this one booth selling avocado near the entrance. It was just so sad. No wonder hardly anyone was there. The greatest thing there was probably all the carnival rides for kids. Just see for yourself. These pictures basically show you the entire festival. It definitely shows that they need more support and work to make next year's more successful. I just hope that all the booths at least made enough money to pay for the cost to be there. I'm not sure how that works. Maybe they pay a percentage of their profits? I don't know.
