At the weekend, I went to the Bedford River Festival, which happens every two years. First I saw the Roman Soldiers who were showing us all what they might have done in battle. Then I saw the carnival parade – it was very fun because there were loads of people dressed up and I saw a cat van, people on trucks, a carnival queen and lots more. People came to me giving out sweets! It was very fun.
I saw people racing on the river on dragon boats. They were very, very fast. I don’t think I could run as fast as them.
After all of that, we saw loads of stalls and I made a minibeast home at one of the stalls. It was very hard but fun. I have hung it in the garden and I hope that lots of minibeasts will visit my minibeast home. I also had my face painted as a scary vampire.
I went to the St John Ambulance place and I gave a dummy a heart massage. My sister blew into its mouth and made its chest pop up to make it come back to life!
I very enjoyed going on all the rides like the bumper boats. I like River Festival a lot because I win prizes too and I got to share some churros with my family. It’s a very big shame that it happens only once every two years!
