Great pictures, Barry!! I can't get enough of this Bowmanville parade. I love the pride on the faces of all the spectators. The parade participants are fantastic. How cool it is to see all those unusual animals too. Very nice!! Thanks.:D

This parade is fantastic, Barry!! What an event it is for all the residents. You can tell they put everything they have into it all year. I love the dogs in the pictures. We have a parade here too but it's nothing like that one. I know you guys love living there. Maybe Fritz can be in the parade next year.:)

[phesina]

Oh, that's so nice! What lovely pictures, thank you, and thanks also for the commentary telling us who's who.

What fun! Looks like everyone around must have been either participating in the parade or else watching it. A wonderful time shared with all your friends and neighbors.

[Karen]

Do the elephant and zebra get to go somewhere warm for the winter? Is that why the parade is held so far before Christmas?

I :love: that the camels' blankets have a hole cut in them for the camel's humps!

[RICHARD]

That parade rocked!

That had everything!

I live two blocks away from our local parade route. I think I will go this year!!!

Thanks!
