Travel Diaries// Summer Friendship Festival 2013|| BEDIS day 22

September 2019 · 4 min read · Illinois

Today's diary is from my trip to a festival in Will County back in 2013. I have a lot of older diaries but hopefully, I get a recent one if all goes well and I can go out of town. Life loves to screw me over and rob me of my chance to travel.

These are my old travel photos. This was taken in 2013 when I went to a festival in Will County ( I think). It was about a 2-hour drive from Chicago. The county held this festival every summer. A lady I helped out over the summer sells things at these festivals so I went with her. I went 2 different days so you will see photos taken at different times.
~ I wanted to go back, it was so nice.

I got a good view of this Farris Wheel. I did record a video as well. I might find my travel videos and post them to my Verond channel so I can link them on here. They weren't really vlogs just some clips that I randomly recorded of my trips.
~ Then I put together the random clips. I did the same for my Fox River Vlog and my Florida Vlog. I wonder if I post them to D.Tube using the travelfeed tag would the description need to be 250 words?


Everyone is out enjoying the festival. What is a travel trip without taking pictures?
~Wouldn't it be cool if companies paid people to travel and take photos. The company pays for your airfare and hotel and you just cover your food?


Sometimes I take more copies of my photos to see which one I like better. When you look good enough, it is a good landscape of the trees.

There is the Starship ride. I didn't get on it because these rides make me super dizzy. I do not like being dizzy. It makes me feel sick. Here are more people walking around the festival.
~If Photo Challenge was still holding their photo contests on Whaleshares, this photo would fit the human's category. People out and about, that would be a nice photo

The bumper car ride. The only time you can drive a car as a kid. Even then I was a good driver. It would have been nice to get a photo(s) of me on the rides, however, I didn't have a friend with me. The friend could get the photos while waiting say, for example, they didn't want to get on the ride.


There were some games at the fare.
~I didn't have much money so I didn't play any games.

It was getting dark. I like traveling at night. You get cooler photos. That is if the place you're going to is lit up at night. If it's not lit up, then it will be a challenge to vlog/take photos.

~Times like this I wish phones got good images at night. My iPhone got good night photos. Even though this happened before I got the iPhone.


This is the night time photo. I am praying for the day when phones get good night photos. Or at least they come with a microlens.

Don't Forget: Get Travel Health Insurance!

To make your trip a worry-free experience, TravelFeed recommends SafetyWing Nomad Insurance. It provides comprehensive health coverage while you travel, so you can focus on exploring, not the unexpected. Get a quote here

A very blurry far away photo. Like I told ya, I wish phones got good night photos. Also, at this time I was still learning how to take photos.

These are all of my festival photos. I will upload my travel videos to my Verond channel and add them here. You will see that later on since I preplan my content.
~I would love to travel more. Maybe blogging on these sites can open more doors. This was from the summer of 2013. This was a good summer. Summer is the best time for traveling.
