I love a Parade.

Dan Drews

 

This song was written in 1931 by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler and appeared in the 1932 film of the same name.

Parades can and do take many forms. They do not always include people. Ducks and geese are sometimes seen parading about, but their faces are all the same, and they do not respond well to the music. So we will stick with people, they do it best.

Last year Puerto Vallarta hosted the Folkloric Dance Festival. Dance troupes from Mexico, Chile, Peru and Columbia competed.  But before that started, they put on a parade, and it was a dandy.

In keeping with this weeks photo challenge, the pics that follow are just a small sample of the colour and the talent that we were treated to. DSC_0279

      I took over 100 pics. It was hard to make a choice of which ones to choose. Thank you for your comment. Cheers.

      Standing as close as we were, they made us feel like part of the celebration. It was a wonderful experience. Cheers.

    Beautiful faces. I love how some faces just pop out of the photos.
