Jul. 1st, 2006 10:18 pmGood things about Cityfolk Festival
1. The main thing was, I got to spend time with two of my best friends. We spent several hours together, just talking and enjoying each other's company and our in-jokes. We spend so much of the school year separated at our various colleges, so I treasure the time together.
2. All the different music and exhibitions! From Andesian flute, to wandering belly dancers, to an African-Carribean fusion band.
3. The food! Okay, so I was nice to myself and my wallet, I only bought a portabello mushroom burger and a shaved ice thingie, but I got to look and smell to my heart's content. Cityfolk tends to bring a mix of typical streetfair food and some insane and very good unique foods.
4. Lack of crowds. Normally it's so bustling that you can't see three feet in front of you, but we lucked out today, maybe because of the heat, and it wasn't too bad.
Bad things about Cityfolk
1. Despite my fervent attempts to slather sunscreen on, I still missed a spot in the middle of my back, probably on my reapplication since it is only dark pink, not lobster red or garnet.
2. My shins are yelling at me for all the walking I did today.
All in all, a good day.
