Several local streets, including market street, in the historic district (Similar to Milwaukee's 3rd Ward area downtown) are closed off and several restaurant vendors and artists set up tents and create a marketplace. Food is sold in small "tasting" amounts ranging from $3-5. We sampled several foods: lasagna from an italian restaurant, steaks from Texas De Brazil, ice cream from Ben and Jerry's and more. It was fun. There were tons of food tents....and of course the first one Steve chooses is.....
yup, that's right gyros! Sick! I'm sure he misses them. Used to get them all the time with his buddies at home late night.
The streets were filled with people. All mostly listening to bands and trying to catch a cool damp breeze from the huge fans blowing water. Lots of kids running around playing games, asking for ice cream. This place reminded me lots of the Wisconsin State Fair. It was really hot outside, but that didn't stop us from checking out the skyline.
We also saw the famous JFK Museum. We went inside only the gift shop to use the ATM. But at least now we know where it is when we want to go and check it out.
The vendors sold everything from cowboy hats, cheap jewelry, tshirts and things like these
which I thought were so cute, and reminded me of nana...cuz she also sews beautiful little children's clothes.

After a while we had to take a break
Cuz Steve's foot was killing him. THen we decided it was time to go. But right before we left we saw this little guy:
