Powell Street Festival

Again, it was a hot day. Though we decided to go to the Powell Street Festival.


Although we went early, there were lots of people in front of the food section.



So cute! Girls in Japanese traditional dress.


This gentleman was solemnly putting sticks into the corns.


Steaming corns.


Yakisoba!


Takoyakis were very popular - long lineup.


Yummy!


Grilling mochis.


Hiyashi Zenzai. It was not that "hiyashi"(cold) though.


Singing...


Aikido demonstration.


Craft sales booths.


Spoiled Strawberry was eating food that people dropped so we had to put her in the carrier. People wanted to take her pictures so Kay had to say yes.


Saying hi to a friend.


Shaving the ice.


Sno cone.



Grilling salmon on fire logs. (On that hot day!)


Okonomiyaki and yakidori.

Couldn't try everything but had lots of fun. Will go again next year. :)

Richmond

We visited Richmond few days ago.
Whenever I am in Richmond and see those planes, I feel weird. A sudden longing.

Corteo

It was great.
I was very impressed to find out that human bodies can move that beautifully.

Belcarra

One good thing about day-off during the week is a quiet time in the park.

   Sunday was very warm, so we decided to go out to beach on monday.

Windblown haired Strawberry in side-mirror.

As Strawberry eats that flower, we keep her on the icebox while we are working on tent.

Tent makes very nice place for nap. Our tiredness of the week washed away.

After about three hours of nap, the water level changed.

Lunch -  potato salad and bread.

I brought books which mostly used as a pillow... and Kay played DS.

Watermelon was not very sweet, however, refreshing on a summer day.

Strawberry, concentrated and satisfied.
