A Day at The Bam Festival!!










So this past weekend on Saturday was the Bam Festival in Brooklyn, me and a few of my friends went out to enjoy the day and to do some shopping. The festival was a great turn out they had a variety of food, jewelry, clothing, and music. We had a great time. We later went out to a restaurant called La traviata, the food was delicious. I had stuffed clams with crab meat and salad. Afterwards we ended the night with drinks.
