For this weeks post,
For this weeks Market Friday its all about the fun of the fair, well..., not quite, its about the fair before it opened for business, so for some I guess not so much fun but I had fun walking around it for these shots as I was filling in time waiting for the cars starting to arrive for the car show.
Let me start outside the fairground of this trailer showing this fair/carnival is provided by Fiesta Shows

and walking down the road heading to the entrance to the fair as you can see this was early morning around 7AM, I had been out for an early morning beach walk, and instead of heading home waiting for 8AM when the Brother in Law was arriving for the car show at 8 so I decided to take a walk around Buttonwood Park.
NOw some may prefer to walk around the fair and displays when it is open later in the day, but its gets pretty busy and crowded and from experience with fairs like these nothing is cheap in fact everything is over priced, so I preferred checking it out when it was deserted
