Expats in International Fest

Last Saturday`s International Fest (Begegnungs Festival) in Rheinaue Bonn was successful despite the continuous rain. There was quite a lot of turn out though the festivities started late noon. Rain or shine, food, culture and fun was able to find its way in the midst of drizzle.

Here are some pictures showcasing international spirit. 

The formal opening of the culture show started at 12noon with the International Protestant Community rendering a song.

Minimum of four booths were from the local Filipino community all offering delectable Pinoy dishes.

Of course our very own Saint Tomas More English Catholic Community with booth number 26 provided craft activities for kids.

Different foods from different countries will be presented and can be bought as well. Gift items and special treats are a norm in every booth. 

This is a yearly spectacle that I love to visit. mainly due to the abundance of Filipino foods on sale and to see other products from different countries as well.
