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

Some brazen hussies parading in public	They had this double wedding done in true victorian style	Plenty of music on every corner	Civil War re-enactors doing some explosive drills
It was easier to beg for sovereigns w/ the duck	Kyle & Maritabeth, 1 of my fave couples	Plenty o' friends abound	The train was a functional one and moving as I took this shot
Another street musician	Sharon and Jim	Joseph and Kelly, alway stylish and elegant	Prussian nobility
There's always an abundance of pipers	The mayor of Galveston	Children's puppets	There are always Christmas treats
