Alumafiesta 2014 trip – Day 7 – Roving Happy Hour

Today started oddly for us.  We got up early enough to go down and have breakfast!  The morning flew by but I cannot say what we did.  I cannot remember.  The next thing we knew that it was time for Food Truck Friday.

Rich and Brett brought in 3 food trucks from the local area.  One was German food, another Indian and the last was an Asian Mexican Fusion.  We chose the latter.  I had a Bam Bam Burger (Korean meat, pineapple salsa, 4 cheeses and a Sriracha dressing).  Roxie had  a Korean burrito.  They were both very good.  Here is Rich getting his order (also a Bam Bam Burger):

Right after lunch we went shopping for a bit.  We picked up a Dyson DC44 for us in the trailer.  Thank you Cindy and Allen.  We also got a few groceries since Roving Happy Hour was coming at 5pm.

Roving Happy Hour (RHH) is, in concept, upto 5 trailers obtain a blue rotating beacon (much like Kmart).  The rest of the Airstreamers are welcome to stop into these marked locations and partake of whatever refreshments there are.  The interesting thing about this one is that 5 beacons went out initially but two came back!  That meant that 3 trailers were doing the RHH. And we were one of them…

At Alumafandango 2013 Roxie was interested in doing it.  There was one every evening there.

Roxie made some dip with chips and we heated up some Orange Chicken.

it was a huge success.  We consistently had people outside and inside the trailer.  This is one of the best things about these get-togethers is people get to see inside of other’s trailers.  I primarily did the inside and Roxie the outside.  I was unable to take any pictures because we were busy for about 2 hours.  It was fantastically fun!

We got to the evening presentation late but it was just starting.  Carlos Lozano from Vanishing Tucson  presented about the Tiki/Polynesian influence in the world and Tucson specifically.  On the way home some neighboring Airstreamers mentioned that Airstream did the same in their trailer with the Ocean Breeze motif.  Too bad that couldn’t have been worked in:

Tomorrow is the last day and then all the Airstreams will disperse.  Always a sad day.
