Continuing With the Art Fair

When an art show is in town Benay HAS to check it out. I have to admit she's got me to the point where I like them as well. Especially the one that Reste and Alinda come to in our city. That one literally has booths from around the world. We had to explore the arts and food as well.

First and foremost we bought some art from Reste and Alinda (pictures to come later of their art in our house).

We found a guy who makes art from orange peels.
We got a diaper bag from Guatemala..............and pillows from Pakistan.......
......and a zebra bowl from Kenya.
Like I said, there were booths from around the world................as well as from our hometown favorite soccer team.
We tried on hats from Russia......
.....and played flutes from Peru.......
.......ate cheese crepes from Brasil.............and of course, we ate chocolate goodness from Uruguay. I won't mention names but for some people in our family, chocolate is the only thing that can trump art in an art show. And our mean sisters even convinced us to try on hats for women.
It really is a cool place and it's fun to interact with people from other countries as well as other states in Brasil.
