It was a very pleasant weather today. I went with my girl friends to the Asian Festival held in Downtown Dallas, Texas. This is the 23rd year that the Asian Pacific Americans gather in a festival bigger than ever highlighting the Asian cultural performances, authentic Asian cuisine, and products.
My friend and her husband, who live just a mile from my house, picked me up 9:15 this morning. We took the DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) train. It was my very first time to be in Downtown Dallas and riding the DART train since I got here in Texas.

Korean booth. Lots of food. 🙂
The Lotus Shop.
Lion Dance
One of the attractions in the festival was the Lion Dance. I haven’t seen one until today. It was pretty nice.
My lunch from the Korean Gourmet food truck. It was very spicy but it’s good…well because it has rice in it.

I had a great time with the my friends at the festival. The performances were beautiful. It’s great to be out and about sometimes especially if you’re witnessing a very special event.
Because we had a DART all-day pass, we took the train again going home. It was unusual to me how the train ride going home was backwards. I was kinda feeling sick. When I got home, I rubbed some Efficascent Oil on my tummy and I fell asleep immediately on the couch.
