This is for the air balloon festival. I think the tickets were like $20 per person and then you…read morehave to pay for parking in a dirt/grass field. This year it was really windy so they were having some trouble getting the balloons to blow up or the authorization to start blowing them up. I like that they were really focused on safety first when it came to the balloon festival. When I arrived a little later in the afternoon, just before the sun went down, the guy that was attending the parking area didn't even charge for parking because of the low likelihood that the balloons were going to go up. So that was great! The bandstand was pretty much the only thing that was going on and the band that was playing while I was there was actually really good but there were only about 3-4 people hanging out around the stage. I felt bad for the band. Granted, most people had set up their chairs around the balloon field and were just patiently waiting to see if the pilots would get the go-ahead to blow up the balloons. I went for the balloon glow, which is in the evening. I've been to the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta so I know what the glow is supposed to look like. I knew this would be on a smaller scale so I didn't get my hopes up. What was really disappointing was that there really wasn't much else to do while waiting. They had booths set up with people selling various wares and only one main food station with long lines. If this event was any bigger, I think a lot of people would be disappointed at the lack of things to do. Fortunately, the balloons were allowed to go ahead. It was pretty cool. My socks weren't blown off but I appreciate the staff doing the best they could with such windy conditions.

A corn dog with fries was $15.00 Sooo yeah! Due to to weather they couldn't fly the ballon but they were able to at least at least poof them out. That was cool. The band was really good. I love that traffics to park and leave was super easy. Since the whole reason why we were there was to watch the the ballon fly at night they offer anyone who want to come back at 7:00 am the next day to watch the hot air balloon fly you could. We already had plans. The other cool thing about this place was you can talk to the hot air balloons pilot, see the basket up close & ask questions. Tip: pay for your tickets online in advance it's cheaper.

The "world famous" strawberry milkshakes live up to the hype and are well worth any wait in line. I love how creamy they are and the fact that they include chunks of strawberries. Don't sleep on just a plain bowl of strawberries with whipped cream either. I normally find myself wanting more strawberries after a milkshake, and the bowl of strawberries is the perfect compliment. As for the lines, they can be pretty long. But they do a really good job at making the lines move quickly. The prices are also very reasonable.

The parking was ample and very organized. Not as huge as the Fl State Fairgrounds, but plenty big enough. What I will say was better was the management of parking. The parking attendants were quicker than Disney parks and more organized lol. Entrance was pretty quick with tickets already. The facilities weren't horrible unless you looked up at the ton of cobwebs (yuck!). The benched arena was like a typical high school one but maybe bigger, thus the rodeo we attended. Over all, I would keep coming to events here no problem. Also, there was no extra charge for parking but not sure if that's typical of this fairground or not.

**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more To be frank, finding this amazing coffee shop was not on my to-do list when my aunt and I partook in the Henry's Hidden Trains trail/scavenger hunt made in cooperation with the Robert W. Willaford Railroad Museum which is also located in the heart of Historic Downtown Plant City. The trail/scavenger hunt took us to many popular locations/businesses in the area, but one particularly stood out the most for me, especially since I was hungry and thirsty after walking around and about in the sun of the area. One of the hidden trains is located near one of the particular entrances of an amazing coffee shop that has a mixture of delightfully tacky decor mixed with a steampunk aesthetic, Krazy Kup. And through this "find," I "found" an amazing coffee shop that I am so happy I took the time to step into... or should I say my growling stomach made me step into it. Though an address is provided, Krazy Kup is located just south of the eastern half of McCall Park. If it further helps out, the aforementioned train museum is northeast of this coffee shop. Starting with the parking situation, the north parking directly in front of Krazy Kup is a one-way in, one-way out. Take that into account if you want to park right in front of the coffee shop. There is public parking, especially around the park, that is not too far of a walk to Krazy Kup, too. There is also an entrance in its back (south) with a bust of King Louie and more parking near there, too. Pertaining to the outdoors, there is also a unique "alleyway" right next to the restaurant that serves as their outdoor seating area, or at least a larger area of outdoor seating compared to the two small tables in front of the coffee shop. Inside, the ambiance has a light tackiness that is quite adorable mixed in with some mild steampunk elements. The numerous Christmas lights definitely adds to the ambiance. My aunt and I did not stay too long to really absorb the ambiance, but it was surely beautiful. Actually, we absorbed the air conditioning more as walking in the sun for Henry's Hidden Trains can be taxing. I didn't get much pertaining to food and drink, but what I did get: delicious! First and foremost, my drink order was a seasonal drink, the apple spiced latte. It helped wash down the amazingly large biscotti. I had the chocolate-dipped hazelnut biscotti with my drink. Now I have to return (one day) to enjoy more on Krazy Kup's menu. Definitely want to try some of their wraps and "Krazy" sandwiches, especially the breakfast sandwich. For my initial review, I am going to give Krazy Kup four-out-of-five stars for their review. The visit was quite short, but it made such an impact with the short time I spent there with the little I bought. But with what little they gave and provided, it was mighty enough to earn its way. I will definitely recommend to others to at least come in and enjoy the simple pleasures, coffee and baked goods with the ambiance. And when I return, if Krazy Kup is consistently good, just like last time, I will give them their fifth star for consistency.
