Four-year-old Charley Bakker, l., clutches her stuffed animal as Ava Freeman, 9, points out how high the Ferris Wheel has taken them during the carnival at the Blaine airportgrounds on May 15.

A four-second-long exposure photograph captures the spinning motion of the carnival ride called the Octopus.

From front to back: William Maynard, Anthony Reyes and Alexander Aguilar scream as the Sooper Jet mini roller coaster as it rounds a corner and goes down a drop.

Josh Douglas and his son Jackson, one, slide down the Super Slide.
