It started yesterday. Anybody going? I went last year and the girls loved it. Presumably it will be at the same location?

Miss Eck

I can't wait to go. Would presume it is in the same place. I have got some beautiful pieces from some of the African stalls over the last couple of years so I am hoping to pick up a few more nice pieces this year.

It used to be very very crowded, is it still the same?

Miss Eck

Generally avoid it on Fridays. The first few weeks are always popular. I like it very late in the evening when the rush has died down a bit.

And of course highly avoidable during the Eid holidays.............

Miss Eck

Good point! May go along on Sunday evening and check it out.

What a coincidence...I may also go along Sunday evening to check you out...

Miss Eck

Lovely. I will be the one doing the Irish jig.

Confucius

Michael Flatley jig???

I understand that Mondays will be Family Day so no zillions of curious construction workers filling up the queues...may go next week as it seems they have added some lakes/canals to the usual features. For those who haven't been, remember it doesn't start until 4pm.

I love the festival city! Might go there yet again this w/e to do some holiday shopping before we leave next week!

Miss Eck

I taught him everything he knows

You are confusing me...I was talking about the Global Village rather than the Festival City...or are you being deliberately controversial, my dear?
