Saturday 5th March 2011

After a stormy night, the day had a few sunny spells but mostly wet, windy and cold! After a late lunch we took a chance and walked into town to see the carnival parade. It had around 15, all locally made with varying degrees of glamour. We had heard some were damaged in a fire recently, so some may have been built quickly. My favourite was the one with a large cat on it, maybe a lynx or something similar which was run by hunters, who had a beer tap and BBQ going, free beer and food! Some floats had scantily clad dancers on them and one doing the samba etc. One or two were more “Priscilla in the desert”!


A quick stop at the shop before returning to the van and the heater on.

  1. Well, let's see if a little tweaking on the Google account will let me post comments again!! Signs of spring here now, with the odd daffodil daring to open........not the blazing sunshine that you've all been enjoying! Sent an email earlier..........
    love Chris
