I slept in until just after 7. I had no plans where I would take my camera this morning. I drove away from the house heading for the Overlander Bridge. I thought I could make my decision once I was on the bridge. 

I made a turn to Riverside Park which I hoped would be a quiet place. I parked near Heritage House to walk to the pier. I was surprised to find tents, chairs and food trucks set up. I felt as though I'd missed the party! 

Four security guards were in place. They were a friendly bunch. They informed me that yesterday and today there will be food and music in the park. I had to go online to determine this is the weekend for the Kamloops Caribbean Food and Music Festival. 

I walked to the end of the pier to get a shot of my mountains and the confluence. Two individuals were having a dip in the river. I wondered what the seagulls thought of that. I caught the CN freight coming onto the railway bridge. Joggers were making good use of the Rivers Trail. 

I had a look at the extra toilets set up for the event. They look out of place beside the tennis courts. I also had a good look at the food trucks set up near the pier. I know I'd love to try some, but I can't stand crowds. 

On my way home I filled my gas tank and picked up my usual breakfast. I can hope for a quiet day with my feet up.
