Hi Steemmates!
Pako Festa - A Celebration of Cultural Diversity
Yesterday, I spent my day celebrating the Pako Festa with my aunties and cousins. So in-short. Pako Festa is the largest free celebration of cultural diversity in Australia. Coming together in harmony, up to 100,000 people meet to enjoy a smorgasbord of cultural food, folk dancing, the famous Pako Parade, workshops, art exhibitions, films, craft displays, free activities for children and an amazing day of non-stop entertainment.
This is my first time coming in to such an Event! Last year, I was at the Philippine and couldn't come. But this year, I was invited by my cousin and took that invitation. I have to be early, so i can catch up with others and see the parade. The parade took for about an hour and I took lots of pictures. I have seen lots of countries like:
And so on. Some of them, I couldn't identify it.
SoThe parade started with this opening:
So me and my cousin had time to walk around. It was a busy street and lots of foods to buy, but unfortunately I only brought 20 dollars with me and only bought takoyaki, it was expensive but it was wort it.
We found lots different types of Association like:
There should be more than this, but this is all i could remember. It was just too many people lots of activities, which you can participate it for free. There was a bus, where you can shoot a hoop. And it's for free. The owner of the bus said, that if you can shoot 5 shoots streaks, they will give you a prize. So I accepted the challenge and won the prize. It took me 10 tries to get the prize. Well it wasn't easy at all!
