Family Day in Edmonton

The second weekend of February is the Family Day in Canada. This festival reminds people to cherish the time sharing with their families. Therefore, there are kinds of activities you can bring your whole family in. 

This year, the Edmonton Folk Arts Council (EFAC) held a dancing show named "Dance From Around the World" to celebrate the Family Day with families from different countries. Since I myself is my "whole family" in Canada, I also went to the Winspear Center at the downtown to watch people dancing.

Althghou this show was free and opened to everybody, it was not crowded as I imagined in the theater. Look, there were even some empty seats at the second floor.

The lady said "Let's celebrate the Family Day!" So I would say "Let's look at beautiful dancings~" :P

The first dance,  every dancing group sent a few actor or actress to dance in this part. Since they wears different traditional clothes, it looks like "People from all of the world are one family." That's nice~ :)
