Christmas Street Parade

So what would any celebration be like without the community coming together to celebrate in unison. The more people, the bigger the event, the larger the celebration, more enjoyment to be had. So what better place to see than Vancouver's community come to watch a street parade and share the joy of Christmas. From community services, to local groups, larger corporations and of course the olympic spirit all combining to give and share their excitement for the season. Many floats, numerous horses and even more walkers, the streets were closed to traffic, though why complain when the event brings so many together. Collect your cup of hot chocolate, find a gap and enjoy the view!

So with flags galore,



and wintery creatures big and small,


transportation by horse and cart, or the Rudolf Bus (hope the antlers don't fall off!),


the Olympic mascots came to join the celebration,


a gingerbread house, perhaps a little big too eat,


and last, but certainly not least, the jolly old man himself, St Nick! ... was I a good girl this year? (or dare I ask!)


Oh what fun it was to be a part.
Seasons Greetings and happy Holidays to all!
