Folklorama is under way in Winnipeg!

Last night was the opening ceremonies at Scotia Bank Stage at The Forks, and despite some heavy thunderstorms just an hour before the event, 4000 people turned up to enjoy the many different cultural performances, from Paraguay, Mexico, Australia, Beijing, Ghana, and of course, the Celtic Irish Pavillon's Brady Irish Dancers and our band.

What this festival means for our family is that in just two weeks we'll be on the road to Ontario, so in between all the concerts we'll be busy with packing and good-byes. Since we'll be loading ourselves into the van to head for Toronto about two hours after the last concert, Folklorama is literally the count-down to a major life change, and it's going to be a crazy roller-coaster ride for the next two weeks!
