OysterFest 2009

This weekend, we attended our first OysterFest. Every year, Rockport hosts the event, and the town grows from 7,000 to more than 35,000. People gather from all over to enjoy good food, music, arts & crafts, carnival rides, and of course, RAW OYSTERS. This year, the winner of the oyster-eating competition ate 178 in a 5-minute period. Albert & I both agreed that this sounded deadly, but I guess the guy is still living to tell the story. Albert ate 9, so he is claiming 169 more couldn't be that bad ... he's got 363 days to train for OysterFest 2010.
