Amusement Park

I received some items I ordered, and I put them in my new area…which is a small amusement park. The teacup ride is really the only ride I have for now, and I’m not even sure if others are in the game. But I also have a games area, including a jokey “Guess your IQ” stand with a colorful wheel (with numbers that only go up to 8).

The possible prizes are next to that, with a scooter, football jersey, Nintendo Switch, and a stuffed baby bear as prizes. I actually had a basketball as one prize, but Nook’s Cranny had the baby bear today, so I thought that would be even better.

Further to the right, there are arcade-style games with pinball, darts, foosball, and a ring toss. There’s also a food/snack area, with vending machines, cotton candy, a table with chairs to sit down at.

I know amusement parks and fairs are a fairly common thing that people create in towns, and even one of the game’s commercials showed one. But I’m a big fan of amusement parks myself, and I thought it would make a nice addition to my town. I will likely add more to it in the future, as I acquire more items. I do have a bit more room to the west of the teacup ride. But I’m pretty happy with this area for now.

Anyway, today was Claudia’s last day in town. I made sure to say goodbye to her. I probably should have let her stay a bit longer, but oh well. This opens up the door for getting another villager, and that’s a good thing.

The orange windflowers near Tia’s house have bloomed. I’m still not a big fan of them, but I think I’ll keep them for now…at least in this area. I don’t plan on planting any more of them elsewhere in town, though.

Speaking of blooming, the rest of my pink-azalea shrubs have bloomed in Peach Park. So I took an updated picture. By the way, this park is right across the bridge from my new amusement park. The houses you see in the background belong to Claudia (for a few more hours, at least) and Rizzo.

In other news, Louie told me he missed a planned meet-up with Agent S because he couldn’t stop looking at his muscles in the mirror.

Agent S, Keaton, and Midge were all sitting at the plaza this evening. I managed to catch them all taking a drink at the same time.

A few other quick notes about today:

• I returned a lost item to Agent S, and she rewarded me with a concierge uniform.
• I found seven star fragments on the beach.
• I got a mummy outfit from a balloon present. I’m saving it for Halloween.
• I bought an office wall and dark-chocolates flooring from Saharah.

My town is coming together, and I can’t wait until I’m ready for a town tour. But there’s still more to be done first… I just have no idea what’s next.
