Indiana State Fair

Hi Everyone (again)

Last night we went to the Indiana State fair (I'm not sure if anyone heard what happened). After about 20-30 minutes of being there an incredible storm started to brew. It was incredibly scary, as all of a sudden a huge wind picked up and the sky started to turn grey and horrible. People started to run inside, and everyone sort of turned into a panic. Being me, I also turned into a panic as I HATE wind and I heard people saying things like 'tornado warning' and 'a huge storm was coming'. As we went inside, many more people were in an even worst state of panic. We then heard from people what had just occurred outside, apparently the stage had blown over onto the crowd and many people were badly injured.

At this point we were inside, waiting until the storm blew over. When we had all reunited, we decided to try and make our way to the car. It was still raining, so we got quite wet, but the storm had nearly finished (besides the rain). We got into the car, and found out exactly what had happened earlier and made our way home.

We were all starving as we hadn't had the chance to eat any of the amazing and crazy fair food (i.e donut burger or deep fried anything, literally anything) so we stopped off at McDonald's and got some take out. Although I didn't exactly have a 'normal' fair experience, it was incredible, freaky, frightening and amazing being able to experience that on my third night in Indianapolis.

If you want to know exactly what happened (as I am still not really that sure) read this article:

I'll try get some photos and post them up later.
