Good Friday, everyone!

Today I'm sharing a few photos I took last month at an outdoor market in Vila do Conde.

I was walking down the street towards a public park in the main avenue when I immediately saw something which got my attention. Right in the middle of the park stood a really cute gingerbread family!

There was the father, the mother, a child and also a little bear. What a sweet bunch! 馃

A few meters ahead I saw a cousin of them, happily inviting the children to ride a small rollercoaster.

Here's another angle of the rollercoaster ride. Yeah, it's not that frightening and I'm sure the adrenaline rush is quite small... but the kids were having fun nevertheless. 馃槉

I also saw the Santa Claus' house which included a mailbox at the entrance... for the children to send their Christmas letters and wishes! A very nice touch! 馃

I liked these mushrooms that were spread all over the place, they were rather cute but I was a bit disappointed since I didn't see a single Smurf anywhere.

There were no Smurfs... but Santa's little helpers were carrying gifts all over the place. 馃槂

On the other side of the garden I saw a weird contraption. Then I realised it was a small Ferris wheel, very small indeed! I doubt the sights at the top were much better than from the ground level! 馃ぃ

Next to it there was a lady selling cotton candy... always a favourite among children and adults. 馃構

The adults were having a good time, too... but the whole space was above all directed to the children. They were the ones who were having a blast, enjoying their time off school while having a very different day. Between the amusement rides and the food stands, they were busy all the time.
