Foster Fest

This evening, we went to the festival on base. This was our first time at Foster Fest, since last year it rained so much that the parade grounds were muddy and I didn't feel like going out in that weather. This year looked like it was going to be the same, but after the brief shower this morning, it cleared up and was beautiful. I think the organizers were worried too, since they set it up in a huge parking lot this year. Much better. The air was cool, it wasn't too crowded and they even had a train. What a great time.

Mary really enjoyed my yakitori (grilled chicken on a stick with a teriyaki type sauce). I tried to get her to try my stir fried veggies, but she was so content with the chicken...that, and Doug's lumpia. My little carnivore.

This train was a bit bigger than the one at Futenma Fest and Mary wasn't eager to ride it alone. Thankfully, the operators let us ride with her without charging us for 2 people. Doug bought 2 rides, so she could have equal time with Mommy and Daddy. What a generous man.
