It's finally here! The 2007 Australian Festival!The Australian Festival should be a pretty exciting event here in South Florida. It's exciting because it is a very welcomed change. I mean, how often do we get to celebrate cultures from somewhere as beautiful and different as Australia? Though I'm not sure how many Australians reside in Florida, I'm pretty sure that this melting pot of a community we live in will truly embrace this festival.
Sometimes we all just get so bogged down in the monotony of the everyday hustle and bustle that we forget that there are more exotic things than foreign films and foreign fashion. There is something from where all of those things originated, and it's called culture. This festival will be a great opportunity for all of us to appreciate Australian culture!
So when and where?The Australian Festival will be held at C.B. Smith Park in Broward County. The Address is 900 North Flamingo Road Pembroke Pines, FL 33028.
The Festival will be held this weekend from Friday through Sunday. We are personally planning on attending on Saturday. If anyone wants to join us, you're more than welcome. Just let me know and we'll meet up. Here are the exact times for the weekend:

Can I ride in sheila's pouch? Haha..
It wasnt the greatest, but I dont regret going. I still had a good time. Its always fun and interesting seeing new things and eating different food. Also of course, its always fun laughing and people!!! Thank you for letting me know about it. I know I still some $$$$$$. But I will repay in bonefish money!
Your blog should be reported for false advertisement. "There will be TONS of Australian food"? More like there was SOME australian food. No kangaroo or any other animals for that matter. We have to get more information before we go to another one of these things at CB Smith. We've been ripped off twice now and that place.
