This year's BOOM Charlotte fringe arts festival was moved to a very nice area with a lake and fountain providing multiple beautiful locations for artists and vendors. Would that take away from its edginess or just show how popular it has become?

Would the turtles get uppity?

There were musicians and shows with overlapping schedules. I had to run back and forth to see as much as I could. More to come in this thread.

Vertical view of a small section of lake. Several turtles sunning on flat, constructed structure, less that a yard/meter square, in the foreground with a tall fountain in the background.
View across a slim lake area to buildings on the other side. In the upper foreground are leafy limbs of trees on left and right. There is a tall fountain in the lake. Two people are in a paddle boat. On the other side large white standing umbrellas are visible in front of decorative commercial buildings. Many people are walking along the bank and are under the umbrellas. The sky is blue with a coupe of wispy clouds.

A new strain of norovirus has been responsible for a dozen outbreaks on cruise ships, with hundreds of passengers getting sick. Meanwhile, last week, all full-time employees in the U.S. CDC's Vessel Sanitation Program were fired — cruise ship inspectors, plus the epidemiologist in charge of outbreak response. Pauline Frommer of @FrommersMag looks at why the heck this happened — "any claim that this was a cost-saving move is hokum," she writes — and what you should do if you're thinking of booking a cruise.

The Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo, is No. 1 on many Japan bucket lists. However buying tickets to meet Bouncing Totoro and eat in the Straw Hat Café isn't a straightforward process. Germain Lussier writes for @Gizmodo about how he found the right site, practiced navigating it, entered the queue, and successfully secured tickets for the day and (almost) time he wanted.
