Today is the last day of the Good Neighbor Festival.

First up though was church. This is probably the closest to the front of church I have ever sat. I think outside of the people on the altar, I was the first one to get communion.

At the end of church, we sometimes have a discussion about something, and then it turns out we're the last ones there.

 We went to the festival grounds around noon today. Kai is fascinated by the 3D printed crafts. He probably spent 30 minutes here.

At the carnival, we all went on the Tilt-a-Whirl.

Kai wanted me to go into the Fun Factory with him. I had never bee in there.

We also played the quarter game. It is the game where you put in a quarter and then as the bar pushes forward, you might win something.

We won a fish as well (when the ping-pong ball goes into a fish bowl).

After this, Kai wanted to go back on the Tilt-a-Whirl, but we lucked out when we saw Claire and Charlie from our neighborhood.

Another boy who we didn't know joined them on the ride. He seemed like a pro and had them whipping around.

After that, Kai and Claire went together on the G Force ride. I thought it was fun he could spend time with a friend. Claire was in his class the first two years of school, but will be with a different teacher this year.

That's all for our city festival in 2025.
