Viva Fiesta!

Happy Fiesta! For those of you who do not know what Fiesta is, let me fill you in. Fiesta is a annual event that takes place in San Antonio every April. Fiesta lasts for eleven days and there are more than 100 events. There are parades, lots of music, and very good food. It is kind of like a big party with lots and streets/areas closed down.

This year we went to two events; NIOSA and the King William Fair. We made it a family event and Jennifer and Curtis were even in town to be apart of the celebration. NIOSA, A Night In Old San Antonio, was our first event that we attended. Friday evening, we took the bus down to La Villita where NIOSA takes place. NIOSA celebrates all the different cultures with all types of foods, drinks, and music. The food was very good.

Here are some pictures from NIOSA...






We spent Saturday at the King William Fair. The Kind William Fair is more family friendly and starts off with a parade. There are different areas designated for food, craft venders, and a children's area. You can even bring your dog! Macy did not come this year, but maybe next time. Once again, there was a lot of good food and the weather was perfect... warm with a cool breeze. It couldn't get any better.

Here are some pictures from the King William Fair...




If you have never been to Fiesta before, you should come check it out next April. Viva Fiesta!
