WORLD OF MUSIC ARTS DANCE

The weekend of August 25 to August 27 found the annual Womad Festival at Singapore's Fort Canning Park. The park is a 15 minute walk from our place so prior to the event we had about 20 or so concert-goers over for pre-festival festivities. Contrary to many beliefs, Singapore is very lax on several fronts as we were allowed to bring beer, wine, and even assorted cheeses into the park. It was a great concert and featured bands from China, Brazil, dance troupes from India and South Africa and was headlined by Jimmy Cliff of Jamaica. The concert was one of the many highlights of the first month. The transition to Singapore has been very easy as we have reconnected with old friends as well in the process have made several new friends from around Canada and abroad.
