International Festival

On Saturday, my school hosted their annual International Festival. The school is transformed, flags are hung from the ceiling and booths are set up for each country represented by Chapel families. The American booth served milkshakes, french fries and chili dogs. The Brazilian booth served feijoada, brigadeiros, and caipirinhas. I volunteered for two hours selling tickets and serving drinks, so I was able to enjoy the festival for free.

The British booth was upstairs, they had bag pipers and served finger sandwiches, and delicious cookies. It was set up like a tea room.

The Lebanese booth and Argentinean booth were huge! The Japanese booth served sushi and the Chinese booth served egg rolls, vegetable dumplings and a delicious noodles.

The decorations were breathtaking!

Empanadas and Malbec wine were served at the Chilean Booth.
