Update from the Fringe - Day 9
We've had quite the week at the Fringe. We have experienced incredible heat. Including the humidex the temperature reached 45 degrees plus. We drank terere (yerba mate with ice cold water) to keep energized and hydrated. Then yesterday it was slightly cooler but the winds were gusting up to 70 km/hr. At one point my earring display blew over and sent some earrings flying. My necklaces and bracelets also went flying and it was a scramble not to lose anything. Our tarp was flapping in the wind and we did everything we could think of to secure our gazebo. I was concerned for the stilt walker being so high up with the wind gusting the way it was but he successfully completed his show. This outdoor festival stuff is sure exciting and eventful. Despite the worries I am very happy to be at the Fringe meeting all the wonderful people.
