WORLD FEST 2009


Welcome to the World Fest 2009.



It was a very busy day at the park, but we still had a lot of fun.



In the Frisco Barn they had the Tastes of the World Food Court
featuring different entrees from around the world.



At the Boatworks Theatre near the Waterboggan, Dermot Murphy from Ireland
entertained crowds with Irish Ballads like Danny Boy, Irish Eyes, and more.



At the Dockside Theatre, Ken "Catfish" Woolston had demonstrations
on his personal collection of world instruments.



Oh and in case you forgot already, the park is crazy busy today.



Today we brought along Missy's mother, Geralyn, to the park.
Here we are hanging out after lunch waiting for the Invaders to start.



The Invaders from Trinidad are always a crowd favorite
and are playing in the Dockside Theatre.



The band plays on Steel Pans, which is the national instrument of Trinidad.



Back over in the Boatworks Theatre, Los Pampas Gauchos from Argentina
demonstrated traditional folk dancing with boleadoras (as seen here)
