We had beautiful weather yesterday for the SoNo Arts Celebration. It is really a big event (much bigger than the Westport Arts Festival). Parking was a little bit of a struggle since some of the streets were closed off, but we managed to find a lot that charged $8 (when we picked up the car 4 hours later it was $6). We did not have to circle around the garage and risk damage to the car to get into a spot, nor did we have to wait in a long line to pay for the parking and then get the car (Maritime Aquarium Garage). So, all was well.
We saw some great performances in the kid area: TESS performance and “Sleeping Beauty.” The art was very pleasant to look at, including the chalked walk. Lunch was at Chocopologie. I didn’t care for my iced hot chocolate; the kids only drank 1 sip of their chocolate milks, so they didn’t care for their drinks either. My grilled portobello sandwich with avocado and mozzarella was excellent, though. Maybe I should try their chocolates next time instead of the drinks.
