Celticfest

Last year, I took Nick to Celticfest and he had a ball. So this year we decided to take the whole family. This would also give Sarah a chance to see Millennium Park. And again we had a great time. The music was good, the people were friendly, the weather was perfect. Nick again enjoyed the kids area (which was not particularly celtic, with the possible exception of a portable mini golf course).

Some highlights:

We saw a duck obstacle course. What is this? Well it's a course that a sheepdog herds a group of ducks around. If you remember the final scene in the movie Babe, only with ducks instead of sheep. Interesting and funny as hell.

Cool band called Different Drums of Ireland, Click here for their website. Lively, fun and thoroughly enjoyable.

Discovered I could buy a kilt for $400.00. Took a pass.

Nick played in the water at Millennium Park's Crown Fountain. That's the one with the changing faces.

Sarah took some neat pictures at the Bean.

Great day.
