On July 26th, Dennis & I went to the Dragon Boat Festival at Sloan’s Lake. We were there with thousands of other people-enjoying a fairly low key cultural event.
The food vendors were lined up, happy to serve up various Asian fares. We had Thai for lunch, it was good quality for the quantity made-IMO. Here in the picture is Mango Noodle Shrimp (served cold), wide rice noodle chilli dish, and sticky rice.
After lunch, we watched some boat races, but we couldn’t really make out what was going on…so we walked over to where the racers were queing up. One of the race coordinators explained the ins and outs of Dragon Boat Racing. The primer helped us to get a handle on the excitement of the races.
We decided to check out the events under the Performance Art Tent. Just in time for Hula Lessons! Woo-hoo! (more…)
