Wow, look out Nowra, this weekend Waterford played host to its annual 'Spraoi' festival. Legend has it Spraoi began about 15 years ago because a group of locals were bored on Sundays. Now one of the women tours the world recruiting the best street performers and festival acts, and signs them up to fill the streets of Waterford on the first weekend in August.
We had the good luck of a mostly sunny Saturday to cruise the centre of Waterford partying, people watching, and generally having a good time. There were giant dinosaur like creatures wending their way through the crowds, scary mermaid dudes, wonderful juggling and acrobatic troupes, and funky DJ Hairstylists and the like all over the joint.
Three cheers for Waterford.
PS Imogen missed the excitement as she was over the channel in London, meeting QE2 etc with Elle {Steiner nee Frawley} and Nic.
