In the past four years I have heard about a Greek festival being held in the city. I have seen banners and billboards but have not paid much attention to them. Well, last Sunday I was listening to the radio while getting ready for church and I heard an advertisement for the Greek Festival this year. It would be held Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I thought that if we desired to, this could be a fun thing to finally go to.
Friday comes along and after Matt comes home from work we decide to jump back in the car and go to the Greek Festival. It was a lot of fun. We listened to a live band play Greek music (Grace and I danced). Then we watched a group of people in authentic dress dance Greek dances. We got some wonderful food (which Grace did not partake of :( We ate Gyros, and Greek fries, and some wonderful desserts that we have no idea what they were called.
Grace's favorite part of the festival was trying to walk up and down the ramp and stairs to the kitchen where they were preparing all of the food. She also enjoyed touching and playing with the plastic fencing that kept the festival contained. Finally she really enjoyed just standing and staring at the port-a-potties. She did not touch them or use them, she just liked to look at them.
I think that it was a great way to end a long work week.
