Avengers and the International Festival. April 2019.

The kids love the Avengers. They were super excited for Endgame. Katherine’s favorite Avenger is Scarlett Witch and Cap, and Andrew loves Antman and War Machine. I am a Captain America (Chris Evans) fan personally. Andy doesn’t really care. We decided to go see it the first day it came out, which was actually Wednesday in Denmark. The kids were prepared for no questions and no bathroom breaks They did great. Andrew especially was entranced.F26A27A0-BDA2-4099-8473-3741BDFE7140

The following weekend was the International Festival. The International Festival is one of the coolest things at CIS. Every country has their own table where you can sample their native food. There are people dresses in the native garb and all different kinds of music.IMG_6644They start with a parade of Nations. Katherine got to be the sign holder for the US.IMG_6646We are ready with our American booth. We served chili (meat and veg), Fritos, chocolate chip cookies, and Rice Krispie treats. Fritos and Rice Krispies were a huge hit.


Here are pictures of just some of the other country’s set-ups. My favorite new thing I tried was a cream dessert from Syria. Some old favorites are the Australian pavlova and the UK’s scones.

They have crafts and activities as well which K enjoyed. We came home with some chocolate. IMG_6649We had such a fun time at the festival. Andy left after he sampled the foods, and Katherine stayed with me to help man the US booth. (Andrew wasn’t feeling well and stayed at home. He puked later, so it was a good choice.)img_6652.jpg
