Perya...Carnival...A place where everyone becomes a child. It was used in the Pinocchio movie to lure kids onto a trap by Stromboli. Wondered why? Because carnivals really attract a lot of people, children and adults alike.
There are what we call Amusement Parks which I believe is almost a hundred percent different from a carnival. An Amusement Park is more well-known, more modernized and I admit, safer.
Most carnivals I know were those called mobile carnivals where they transfer from one place to another, trying to earn as much money as they can.
And since Davao City is deprived of Amusement Parks such as the Enchanted Kingdom and Star City, we were really amazed when the carnival was risen beside NCCC Mall.
But as I've said, it was a whole lot different from an Amusement Park, but it was fun, especially the "pasugalan" center where you go and bet on a color you want and if the color was chosen, then you can win double or triple the money you bet.
There were also rides and i tried that "Roller Coaster" thing that they had which of course was a hundred percent scarier than real roller coasters. Why? Because of the fact that you'll get scared out of your wits hoping that the trail or your car will hold its position while you're running! haha!
But nonetheless, we got out of it, safe. we had the same thrill anyway, same butterflies in the stomach feeling as the coaster dropped down and yeah, almost the same satisfaction as from the real ride.
Me and my cousin Jane weren't able to enjoy the carnival much last night because oldies were with us, and they were like wanting to go home early already.
So hopefully tomorrow, I'll go back there with Jane still and Jannah. Ü
