Finding Florida - Episode 18b: Festival Fun, Part 1

Finding Florida - Episode 18b: Festival Fun, Part 1

Sun ‘n’ Fun Fly-In and Air Show in Lakeland and the Hatsume Japanese Fair in Delray Beach

Florida is just FULL of festivals, fairs, and art shows all year 'round. And, in this adventure, we visit three festivals that REALLY couldn't be much more different, and we split up our attack. In Part 1, Glenn flies solo at one of Florida's biggest events--the Sun 'n' Fun International Fly-in in the lovely town of Lakeland. It's the 2nd largest airshow in the world! Then, Glenn drove down to Delray Beach and joined Jaime for the Hatsume Japanese Fair at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, which is the largest Japanese festival in Florida. We were surprised by an old friend from a previous episode, and Glenn got an education in Anime and the sub-culture that goes along with it. Listen in...

Then, in Part 2 (Episode 18c), Jaime hits up all the crawfish and beer at the Cajun Crawfish & Music Festival in Palm Beach Gardens on April 20th. Details are in the show notes, if you want to join her!
