Two festivals over the weekend. The first was Friday June 5 (actually went on for around 4 days) was the Richmond Greek Festival. A favorite and fun event filled with some great food, interesting ethnic dancing and music, and just a chance to see some fun people in a fun setting. The look inside the church was very interesting.
Greek Orthodox Church is very old as a religion, dating back to the time of the Catholic Church. Very nice building on the inside and enjoyed that.
Went on a Friday night, this being early. By the time I left it was wall to wall.
Sunday the forecast was not good weather wise with expected severe storms. Those though (unlike Friday which had rain coming down in buckets on my way home) did not happen and it was a beautiful day. Some blocks of Broad Street were closed and was able to walk down the street and check out food from some 70 or so local restaurants. I also got to see one of my favorite local bands "The Voodoo Dolls" seen here at left. It was a very fun time and a wonderful way to spend a Sunday. Nice to enjoy two of my favorite events on one weekend. Looking forward to doing it again next year.
