Every summer, during the last 2 weeks of August, Hastings Park is home to Vancouver's Pacific National Exhibition, better known as "the PNE". I have fond memories of my dad taking me there as a kid - all the carnival rides, the impossible-to-win games of skill, the rickety giant wooden roller coaster that looked (and felt) like it was going to fall apart at any moment, the funky barnyard smell at the petting zoo, the salesmen demonstrating the amazing Ginsu knives that could cut through a leather shoe, the super awesome demolition derby, and eating corn dogs, mini donuts, snow cones, and cotton candy till my tongue turned blue. Thanks dad.
