Dragon Boat

June 6-8th was the Dragon Boat festival. I big international boat race. All three days have continous races between groups of all ages and some other activities. Not as much going on as week expected, but it was fun for a couple hours.


A race just finished so everyone's getting out of the boats.


I'm pretty sure this was a high school team.


This is a Filipino team, not sure if there was a specific US team, but saw a lot of foreigners that could have been American/Canadian.


The entrance to the festival. The walkway behind us is full of vendors. It kind of reminded me of a carnival or fair, only much smaller.

Corn dogs!! This was Natalie's first one ever. It was pretty good!


Here's a video that I took just because it's interesting to hear the drums and whistles for them to keep the rowing beat.
