Many people came early to Maritime Museum and stayed there for hours in wait for the concert. The weather changed throughout the day but it was no problem for the people to sit on the grass with their picnic basket and enjoy the music. People of all ages came to listen, and activities were set up for the children to enjoy.It was a great day with great music and a fantastic audience.
