Admission for adults $5.00 and kids under 12 were free. The event hosted live music on Saturday by the Chilly Willy Band and Mat Mackelcan. The food offered were in various booths but the stand out was the buckets of steamed oysters at $12.00 each, and steamed shrimp $10.00. In addition, there are fried oysters, clam chowder, Jambalaya, Po boys and plenty of other great grubs. We tried the steamed oysters and peel and eat shrimp which was very reasonable. The quality was awesome. It was quite the site seeing crowds of people shucking their steaming hot oysters, peeling & eating shrimp and drinking ice cold beers. We topped off our great meal with beignets which were piping hot and catered by a restaurant called Kenny B's. From what I understand this event has been happening for the last 6 years and I would definitely recommend it to people visiting the area this time of the year.

The Coastal Carolina Fair is currently happening at the Ladson flea market grounds. I think the…read morelast time I was at a Fair was when I was a very small child, so this night out was very nostalgic for me. It was so much fun, so many food vendors, rides, and game stops. We went on Monday and it was busy but easy to walk through with minimal lines. They had a section with farm animals, which included cows, goats, sheep, bunnies, chickens, birds, donkeys and horses. It's so great that children can see these animals up close. The fair food is extensive, unhealthy and of course they will fry anything, but it's so much fun, especially if you're with a group and you can share the massive portions. I tried a lot of things that I had never eaten or even heard of before. The entrance fee was $15 and I think if you wanted to do the rides it's another $20 at the gate. it's not bad pricing considering parking is free and you have the option of not doing the rides I guess. The compound has many many bathroom facilities, it's clean with tons of trash cans and people sweeping and cleaning up. I have to say I was very impressed with that. So overall, the Fair is a fun family night out as long as you are aware and conscious of your budget. I thought it would be a cash only event, but the majority of vendors take credit cards. I think they add a 4% charge for using cards. However, good to know.

Immediately the people who were there came out and stared at us like we were not supposed to be there. They asked why we were there and I said we were there for the petting zoo.

They were not friendly and the whole interaction was very uncomfortable.

At first I thought the poor animal was sick until I learned kangaroos are nocturnal. It is incredibly cruel to display an animal in noisy environment when it's internal clock is ready to rest. I recognize the major sacrifice farms such as this one make to care for animals especially ones in need, but could you please please please reconsider using a nocturnal animal for daytime festivities? Aside from it being disturbing to watch the animal suffer, it was hard to explain to my children why a company who takes care of animals were allowing this nocturnal animal to be in such a gruesome environment.
