We have been back in New Orleans for about three weeks now. Actually, this weekend is a public holiday in US, it is memorial day. We have 4 days weekend. The weather in New Orleans is really nice now hovering around 70F, I guess this is the calm before the storm, before the dreadful heat of the summer sets in next few months and the threats of 2009 hurricane season looming over us. Anyway, this weekend was fantastic, we visited the Greek festival in town. It is held on the ground of a greek church right by a big lake in city park. Houston also has Greek festival but this one is way better than the one in Houston. There is a live band playing Greek music, lots of greek food, lots of dancing (the people in New Orleans love to drink and dance).
This is the ground of the Greek festival. Nice weather, nice food, nice Greek music.
The crowd was huge. It was hard to push our double stroller around in the crowd.
On the way to the greek festival, Meredith peruse her mum's lipstick to a horrendeous outcome. She smeared the lipstick on her mouth.
We stayed at the festival until 9pm at night. There are lots of people dancing to the Greek music. They sell a lot of cheap wine at the festival which helps promote the dancing.
There is a children playground at the festival with a sand box area. Meredith jumped right into the sand box because she has been playing sand at her play school everyday.
It took Isaac a while before he gathered enough courage to put his feet into the sand. Once he stepped into the sand, he was delighted by the new sensation.
The Greek people grilled whole lamb at the festival. We tried the lamb, it was good but a bit too dry, somehow I think it should be more juicy, the Greek guy sell a box with 1lb of lamb meat for $12.
