Festival of Nations







I spent this past Sunday afternoon at Tower Grove Park in St. Louis at the Festival of Nations.  At times, I’d just walk and listen.  Sometimes I get caught up in my little American bubble and I forget how little of this world I’ve experienced.  As I walked around, I heard many conversations spoken in several different languages.  There we were, people from all different walks of life, together in one place! It was a really cool experience!
