Art Car Fest
On a Sunday morning, I was woken up by noise coming from outside my apartment. To my surprise, there were cars parked all over one side of the street. All this was happening right outside! They were strange cars, heavily decorated with all sorts of things. There also many strangely dressed people as well as many photographers lurking around. I have later learned that this was a car art show, which is part of the "How Berkeley Can You Be" Festival.

My roommate and I are in this photo. Notice that we are not really dressed up. We just went outside our apartment without changing so we are still wearing sandals. The building in the background with many windows is our apartment complex. We live on the bottom left apartment. The car we are in front of is decorated with hundreds of corks. All these cars were parked here for several hours.

After a while, the engines roared and the parade began!


The car itself is a musical instrument!

When the parade finished, all the cars stopped by near a park, where a party was happening.
