Philly Caribbean Festival

Score! It looks like I’ll be fortunate enough to head over to the Philly Caribbean Festival this weekend. The event takes place on Sunday, August 20, 2006 at the Great Plaza in Penn’s Landing from 12 PM – 8 PM. Like most festivals of this nature it will be a celebration of Carib culture through island cuisine, music and vendors selling authentic island crafts. Also on the scene will be the Expedia Team distributing info on their special giveaway in Philadelphia. Now, I would imagine it would be something really incredible like an all-inclusive vacation to the Virgin Islands or something. Well, okay wait, it looks like it will be info on their $50,000 Dream Vacation getaway, which is just as fabulous if not better than what I had imagined.

If you’re in the Philly area with nothing on your agenda as of yet, come check out the fest, grab some jerk chicken, Red Stripe and lime a little bit. Make sure you save me some!
