Arts in the Park at McCormick's Creek...

We spent Saturday, 8th June, at the Arts in the Park festival at McCormick's Creek State Park. The weather was perfect. There was a very sporadic light drizzle and plenty of cloud cover that kept the temperature from rising.

There were many interesting stalls selling various arts and crafts, and it reminded me of Craft in the Park that we love in Rondebosch, a suburb of Cape Town. We also enjoyed the children's activities in the Nature Centre and the live music.

We then went and hiked down to Wolf Cave where I squeezed through the narrow cave tunnel system and met Candace and the kiddos on the other side. :)
