I love festivals too, we've got lots all summer long now, from Cari-fest to Folk-fest and everything in between. My next visit though will be to BBQ on the Bow, I love me some bbq. :) @WR – it was pretty cool.

Calgary shines in it's too short summer, and that is one neighborhood that has more personality than many. @ Linda - thanks for the compliment! I tried to capture a bit of it all, but the food is what held my interest the longest. :) The samosas are great - crispy packets of dough with a spiced potato and pea filling. Definitely give them a try. @ Cassaendra – it was fun, sun and food. Calgary shines in it’s too short summer, and that is one neighborhood that has more personality than many.

It was so detailed and had so many great photos I felt like I was right there experiencing it for myself. I definitely wouldn't mind experiencing those veggie samosas, never even heard of those before. Wow, what a great post.

Heck, that street looks pretty fun with all those storefronts even without the tents. Then again, Calgary is a lovely place from what I've seen when I meandered there years ago.

But all my friends that have gone say it's as amazing as it sounds. It's definitely on my list of things to visit. I’ve never been either!

It's so great when its festival comes to your own town, I wish we had that! Thank you for sharing! I’ve never been to New Orleans (except in the Disney World).
