One of the beauties of Lincoln is that it's small enough that we can attend any downtown event without worrying about parking and traffic. It takes all of 10 minutes to make it from our house on the edge of town to downtown. We attended the "Ethnic Fest" downtown to experience distant cultures and foreign foods.
The boys were excited as they watched a Chineese dancing dragon performance. Their eyes were as big as saucers when the dragons lept off the stage and ran around on the street. The highlight of our visit was the Japanese drum team that performed synchronized drumming. The show was good, but the white guy on the team underscored the fact that we were still in Nebraska.
We tasted some ethnic foods: some sort of middle-east sweet treat, egg rolls, and a greek spinach & feta sandwich. Mr. Margarita was there serving up south-of-the-border frozen drinks, and the beer stand featured beers from afar.
The boys played on all the inflatable attractions and worked up a sweat.
