It’s been a crazy couple of weeks in Sayulita. As I mentioned before, the town has been hosting an enormous carnival. Mike and I had a lot of fun playing the carnival games and people watching.
This was my first time at a Mexican Carnival and I ended up with a few…. questions that I would love to share with you now.
(Apologies for the crappy photography, I was overwhelmed by flashing lights).
Why so Much Sponge Bob?
I know spongebob is still inexplicably super popular, but man this guy was everywhere! Including a few suspiciously unlicensed variations.

How Sketchy is this Bar?
And what is an “adios motherfucker?”
Is This a Mechanical Bull for Children?
Yes it is. That seems… not safe? Probably?
What is Up With These Carnival Prizes?
Instead of toys, many of the stands gave away things like boxes of cookies and these very utilitarian gift sets. Woo! Toilet paper and ramen!


Even Worse: These Prizes
Spongebob or cigarette case stuffed animal- you choose. Who even okayed this?
This Place Just Got Straight to the Point:
Win a bottle of booze!
WHY DOES THIS EXIST
Nightmares forever.
