The 2008 Azalea Festival
Here are some photos of Wilmington, NC's famous Azalea Festival. Please take note of the complete and utter lack of Azaleas. in addition to the tacky art work (see below) there was a whole street (about 4 blocks) of nothing but fried food (funnel cakes, turkey legs, okra and other veggies, and about anything else you can stick in a deep fryer) and 5 dollar lemonades.

All the azaleas are in your yard! Next year, put your yard in the festival and charge 4.00 for lemonade.
NICE!
You know you want to buy one of those tacky picture but Heather won't let you!!
I have been attending the Azalea Festival since the 50's. Did not miss one when I lived there. Went back starting in the 80's. Just keep in mind that they have to have a date a year in advance and it is very hard to predict when the Azalea's will be at their peak.
I agree with the front line of the Street fair about the food, but I did notice as you went back there was a variety of things to browse.
I am happy walking on the River walk.
Have a blessed day
