Summer in Ocean County is a time for BBQs, swimming, enjoying the beach, and of course carnivals. And as the season continues, carnivals are popping up here and there. So what thrill rides do you look forward to when the carnival comes to your town?

The big, circular mechanism in the picture above is called the "Ring of Fire". It's got a train like a roller coaster that slowly rotates back and forth, until it finally reaches the top and goes around the loop. Kind of like the classic looping pirate ships.

The carnival currently in Seaside Park also has some of the classics - the Gravitron, Tilt-a-whirl, and of course games and lots of food that's terrible for you (but let's be honest, that's one of the best parts!).

So when you head out to the carnival, what's on your "must ride" list? Tell us in the comments!
