"They danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn..."

Big time fun at the Javanese fair. Ride at your own risk!
Funny! There used to be a "amusement park" like this in Tanzania. Pretty much all the rides were broken (probably a good thing) but it still attracted the East Indian community who hung out there on the weekends. The last time we were there that place was history but someone had built a legitimate water park in a ritzy part of town. So odd to see something so upscale. It priced out everyone but tourists, rich expats and rich East Indians.
