The weatherman was calling for cold and rain today, so I packed my rain poncho before heading over. Wouldn’t you know that the sun came out and it was warm and sunny the whole day.

I just had a few hours for the Ex today so I checked out the daily schedule before I went. The Pizza Pizza International Stage had new performers today, so that is where I headed. The Japan Toronto Buddhist Church Buyo Group gave a lovely performance of traditional Japanese dances. The intricate dances were performed with a sense of grace and dignity. The women wore a series of beautiful costumes. Before each dance an announcer told us the history of the dance and a bit about the time period the dance was from.

I thought I would check out the miniature horses again. When I got there I was surprised to see the horses and their handlers all dressed up. There is a costume class at this show. I saw an owner dressed up as a doctor and a horse in a hospital gown. There was horse in a tutu and one with leaves braided into her mane. The horses seemed to be taking it all in stride.

I stopped by the Buskers stage again and saw the juggling act before heading home. He has quite a clever act. I have never seen someone juggle with no hands before.
