I was very impressed with this athletic gentleman riding his penny farthing bicycle.
And here's a completely different type of transportation. I can just imagine this little pony curled up at the end of my bed. So sweet with Christmas decorations on his toes.
The local Junior 'A' Spirit ice hockey team acknowledges their fans...
... closely followed by a Viking warship on its way to do a spot of looting and pillaging no doubt.......
.......... and the crazy Shriners with their musical choo-choo-train.For more pics of the Santa Claus Parade see previous post.
Yes, your parade was definitely longer than the one in Mount Albert. Thanks for posting them, ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi, It looks like a good time was had by all, just whats needed to brighten up our long winter days.
ReplyDelete*sigh* I wish hey had them here, too.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a terrific parade with lots of interesting thins to see. Love the penny farthing bicycle.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice tradition. Something like that in my town would be swell.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. I certainly wouldn't want to fall off that penny farthing bicycle! Loved that little pony.
ReplyDeleteThe penny farthing bicycle looks almost like riding a large unicycle.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you live in a charming town. The old-fashioned parade seems reminiscent of another time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun event!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfully charming Parade...LOVE that dear little Pony! It looks very very COLD.....A Chilly Wintery Day.....Brrrrrrr.
ReplyDeleteThe weather was perhaps not the nicest during the parade, but who cares when you have fun!
ReplyDeleteah, the vikings! we can't leave them out. read yesterday that DNA shows iceland was populated by norwegian men and celtic women--the latter gathered for wives when the vikings pillaged the orkney islands. of course, canada is not iceland, but it's always fun to find a window into history, even in a local xmas parade.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great wintertime/Santa parade. I am in charge of dinner this year again.....just the 2 of us but enough food to feed an army.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, Shammie. Gotta love that little pony with its jingly tootsies.
ReplyDeleteThat bike looks impossible to ride! I'm shocked!
ReplyDeletethe penny-farthing looks very precarious!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely a parade, we don't have them over here!
ReplyDeleteSo fun. Hmmm. Can't remember the last time I saw a...Christmas parade???
