Fest

I’ve talked before about the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown and how happy it makes me. Today I am off (withfamily) to the place we’ll be staying for Fest. From tomorrow, I will be entirely immersed in 15 days of AMAZ!ING (but only for the last 10 days).

Every year I plan to write quick updates as I go but so far it hasn’t happened. Not that I mind. One of the best things about fest is that there is so much going on – shows, art exhibitions, village green, lectures, amazing people – that it is easy to forget that there is a world outside this magical bubble. I can feel the excitement starting to bubble in my stomach and ripple through me just writing about it.

I am planning, once again to write about the shows and the magic but it might not happen – sometimes the experience itself overwhelmed all desire to record it, like a beautiful jungle butterfly that cannot be pinned down or the DMZ you can’t take pictures of, or other similar examples.
