International food festival

One of the best things about Blacksburg is that during the summer there are lots of festivals going on in town. They shut off the main streets most weekends and the festivals are so much better than the ones in Preston!
Last weekend was the international food festival, run by the international student groups. (I have only just gotten around to getting the photos off my camera.)
We ended up getting there a little late as the guys in the group I went with were playing hockey. So some of the food was ton when I got there, including the Moroccan. :-( which made me sad as I love Moroccan food. But there was still plenty to choose from. To eat and drink. We definitely got our share, including Brazilian, Thai tea, and some others things I can't remember where they were from (but were delicious). :-)
On Collage Avenue. 
Turkish - it was delicious. 
Belly dancers
They also had performances form the student groups. We managed to catch the Lebanese dancing (I didn't see the Lebanese food which is a shame as it's another of my favorites). After they had finished,  people headed up to the "stage" and joined in.

Free for all
It was a lovely day and finally good to sit in the sun. I even started my tan. :-)
