2003 marks the 30th anniversary for the Dickens Street Festival. It is presented by the Galveston Historical Society in downtown Galveston. It is quite a weekend event filled with a wide variety of shops, performers and festivities. The event drew a decent amount of patrons despite the crisp weather. This year's event apparently was a success exceeding previous years.

The previous description and all these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby

Father Christmas	The trappings don't seem quite right	Kimbelle & Rick and Ken from the Minnesota Faire watching a show	1 of the many street urchins
First thing in the morning on Strand Street	Much of downtown has victorian architecture	Some of the bobbies helping out a patron	The Giesins from the midwest
This year's gingerbread sculpture on display at our hotel, the Tremont	There are always plenty of cyclists	Not to mention the Rogues	Nelfi-I mean Nelson being his silly self
Playing a request	Kathleen and Bill	Can't have Rogues without Roguettes	and it's best to have the originals
