I don’t know about you, but I would love to eat at this Alice In Wonderland restaurant. Then again, I would enjoy most of the stuff on this Oddee list.

I’ve featured tons of abandoned places on the blog before, but I’m not sure if any are as creepy as these abandoned prisons from Environmental Graffiti. Be sure to read the whole descriptions in order to really get the chills running down your spine.

Fun Times At The San Diego Fair
This week I got to check out the food, fun and frivolity that is the San Diego Fair and here is the result. While I didn’t eat any wacky doodle foods (just fried calamari and a cinnamon roll), I did document all the craziness.
This was the one booth that did tempt me, being as how I am a huge cheese fan and macaroni and cheese in a cup sounded great, as did deep-fried cheese curds.
Last year, this booth made all kinds of waves with their deep-fried butter and chocolate-covered bacon, and this year they stepped up their disgusting fatty food game with deep-fried bacon and chocolate covered corn dogs.
While I didn’t get any of the crazy food, my friend did try the chocolate-covered corn dog and the result was surprisingly boring. According to him, the melty chocolate covering completely covered up the flavor of the corn dog. I had some of the chocolate-covered bacon last year and I have to admit, it suffered from the same problem -mostly because the bacon slice was so thin it would be hard to taste without a chocolate covering.
This is the most famous of the food booths, featuring deep-fried Girl Scout cookies and deep-fried Kool Aid.
They’re so popular that they actually have two connected kitchen trucks.
One of the fair’s longest-running food stands, this barbeque joint serves up killer smoked ribs and grilled chicken for the greatest prices of any fair booths.
Inside the wood-working room was this sexy wood bikini.
There was also this incredible replica of every wand from the Harry Potter movie series. A geek’s dream.
All in all, a great time was had by everyone and I highly recommend anyone in the area stop by and enjoy yourself.
Update: It occurred to me that this video from Charlotte’s web was a suiting addition to the post.
Hidden in the midst of dense Indian jungles, the Ajanta Caves are a stunning series of temples that we lost for almost 1000 years until they were discovered again in 1819. Learn more about these beautiful rock-carved temples here.

Abandoned Six Flags New Orleans Pics
After sitting submerged in up to 8 feet of water courtesy of Hurricane Katrina, Six Flags New Orleans is rotting and rusting its way back to nature. And the pictures of the park’s present state are simply stunning.

Mad Max Renenactments
What happens when a bunch of geeks obsessed with Mad Max get together in the desert to live out their favorite post-apocalyptic movie? Pure awesomeness.
I don’t know about you, but I’m fascinated with stained glass and these 10 on Oddee are simply wonderful, particularly the first one, seen above, that is made from slices of geodes.

The Underwater Hiking Trail
No, this isn’t a hiking trail that was flooded during a natural disaster, it’s an Austrian area actually always under a lake during the summer. Then, during the winter, the park is dry and a favorite hiking location for locals.
