Yes I have but when I was living in Narleans and the drive was a road trip up north. It was during the 80s and new wave music was the thing and I have seen older young adults using this annual event to hook up with a gal from somewhere.
The older folks may use this event to see other friends and lost relatives in the states after fleeing as boat people. I remembered people are grouped by states and we would stand behind a play or banner that shows the state we are in.
That place is a monastery for young priest as well.
My uncle from MN still goes annually. Annual Summer time road trips with the family.
However , wirh that many people, we also hear about stories about the family that did not make it. Car accident.
