We got there with a few minutes to spare, and tried to find a spot to park and watch the parade.
Thanks to David's extreme good luck and sharp eyes, we ended up right in FRONT of where the parade would pass by.
A big crowd had gathered and people had found themselves a spot to watch the parade go by.
We literally had no one in front of us to block our view ( well, Grandad's view ) as everyone clamoured for a piece of shade provided by the buildings. It didn't matter as much to Grandad, as he was in the shade as well, IN THE CAR, and with the air conditioner going.
There were a few minutes to spare before the parade started, so we let Jaxon walk around a bit on the deserted ( blocked off ) road.
There was lots to see... there were different vehicles, wagons and horses....
Floats with mascots and festival princesses...
and marching bands, among others
Jaxon got a little restless, and so part of the time we were strolling around, taking in the parade from different parts of the street.
The weather was cooperative, and Grandad got front row seats, so all in all a good time was had by all.
