Brass Bowl’s Flugtag a washout
It happens from time to time. Plans don’t work out, or they are based in error. Such was our day. We went to the Convention Center, leaving our chairs behind. TBO stated there would be seating provided. We get there, nothing. So we pick a spot to try to watch it. We get crowded out by less than polite, less than sober people. Between the columns, the palm trees and the people, we simply could not see much of anything. We left early, tired and not in the best of humor. None of the pictures I took are worth posting.
And it is my fault. I did not do a good job of research or review of the best viewing area. (shrug) Some days are like that. You can’t have great days every day.
Unless you are a cat. Here’s to you, Tinkerbell.
Don’t feel bad about that one. We went as well and left early because of the view, the rude people, and the drunks. They had no clue that that many people would show up. I heard they expected 20k and ended up with well over 100k. Bad planning, bad event sight, and bad crowd control made for an unpleasant day…but you know what…we had lunch with friends after we left and that was the best part of the day.
