OT: Rose Parade

We went to look how the flower floats are assembled. An impressive operation, lots of glue and flowers.
Hope to see in the full glory on Jan. 1st.
Enjoy! And have a Happy New Year!

Beautiful!! I have been to the Rose parade "after parade" once. The floats are gorgeous! So much work too! My husband and I have volunteered to help a few times...its a tough job. When you have to climb up a few stories to glue flowers on repeatedly for hours and hours inside a cold hanger-like, it is tiresome. I salute those who do it every year!

It looks like you had a great time, Igor.
