Folk Festival

Yesterday was our 7th month anniversary, so we went to see a movie. We watched Ocean's 13. It was very good. We both thought it was better than the second movie, but still not as good as the first. On Saturday, we went to a czech folk festival. It was very interesting. The folk music and dancing was intersting, but also there were many people useing old traditional crafting skills to create many things. One man was making flutes out of pieces of wood and bone. He would pick up something that looked like nothing more than a stick and then make music come out of it that was unbelievable. There were others who made smoked cheese, traditional clothing, and also various kinds of folk art. What was really cool, is that there was also a group from america who performed american folk music. Here is video of a czech folk dance and also an american one.
