Nothing beats a Friday, especially on a week where you started work at a new job, and just a week after your family moves cross-country. The NJ State Fair opened today and was advertised as $1 parking, $2 entrance fees, $1 games, and some $1 foods. With that in mind and a weekend to look forward to, we figured the 30-minute drive would be well worth it.

The fair was held near the New Meadowlands Stadium where the NY Jets and the NY Football Giants play there games, so it was cool to see what a new stadium looks like (ahem Qualcomm). Time flew by as we ate sausages, $1 hot dogs, $1 roasted corn with cheese, mayo, and chili powder, and even got a few prizes after Keante played a few games.

I don’t think we’ll ever fully get used to NJ, but this is a good start.
