For those of you non-Kodiakans - Crabfest happens here in Kodiak every Memorial Day Weekend. It is something that the town REALLY LOOKS FORWARD TO! It is the talk-of-the-town and a 5day celebration that welcomes the summer.Yes, it is called "Crabfest" but, there is no crab there. Well...there is one vendor who sells king crab legs for $20...CRAZY EXPENSIVE. Overall there are about 20 vendors who are both local and from the mainland. They sell all your typical "Fair Items;" even a small carni comes to town where they have rides and games for the kids.
Now, being from the "Big City" I can say, firsthand, that Crabfest is pretty lame. Yes, it is the most exciting thing to do in Kodiak. But, compared to the rest of the world...it's LAME.
Emily, Ethan and I went downtown on Friday to check it out and here are some of our pictures. It was sprinkling off-and-on while we were there, but when in Kodiak rain can't scare you---it rains here all the time!
