Recollecting My Childhood Memories
After my family and I attended our Sunday services in the Church, we ate our lunch outside to our favorite eatery in our small city. Then riding on our family service van driven by our son-in-law, we headed to the municipality of Valladolid, here in our province.
We dropped to her beautiful public plaza where there were lots of small vendors selling their wares. In another part of the said plaza, the carnival was situated. There as I entered and roamed around to take some pictures, my childhood memories keep on flashing back. I enjoyed the carnival before but not as sophisticated or modern as compared it in this present time. My dear parents used to bring me to our humble plaze where rides and shows were being held.
Entertainment Inside the Carnival
1. Carousel
2. Horror Cab Ride
3. Octopus Ride 
4. Swing
5. Ferris Wheel
This Jan Jan Carnival entertainment is to usher the annual festival of the town of Valladolid for more fun and enjoyment to the visitors, tourists, and the residents of the town themselves.
Valladolid has contributed much of our love life with my wife who was my high school sweetheart before sometime in 1969 when we met in the high school where were studying.
WOW! Carnivals are a sweet fun childhood memory. I don’t think my children have these memories. We’ve lived in many cities but there were not many opportunities for me to take them. Too bad I could not create these memories for them.
This is usually common in our place when we’re having our annual festival.
i have always liked carnivals. it is fun to wander through them, checking out interesting tented shows and riding rides, as well as playing games and eating junk food.

That’s wonderful to hear from you. ?
Do they have games to play at your carnival there? If so, did her win your wife a stuffed toy? That’s a young love tradition here in America 🙂
This is different. Inside the carnival is all rides.
That’s neat 🙂 I love learning the differences in cultures!
Carnivals are very charged with positive energy. Beautiful pictures.
Both the young and the adult are happy to be in the Carnivals watching shows, riceds and everything for entertainment.
