Mermaid parade pictures

[beowabbit]

I may not be done sorting and annotating last February’s pictures from Hawai‘i, but at least I finally have some pictures from the Mermaid Parade last weekend up. (Unfortunately, I left my fresh camera battery in the car, so the only pictures I have are from the very beginning of the parade. On the other hand, that let me get them annotated and sorted in finite time.) A few are behind the cut (at relatively small size), but you can also see the full gallery at http://www.aq.org/~js/gallery/2006.06-mermaid_parade/.



Spectators lined up waiting for the parade to start.


The tattooed drummer at the beginning of the parade. The drum reads "Coney Island, U.S.A. Presents".


The parade banner, "The Mermaid Parade / produced by Coney Island".


Two very scantily-clad (and tanned) guys.


A very fancy gold mermaid costume on a very lovely mermaid.

Enjoyed the day with you

Dear Beowabbit:

Had a good time strolling the boards, dodging the raindrops, and turning in the big wheel with you and sexykneesocks. The whole scene at the Flux Factory later on was wonderful, I thought. So much story slipped into pictures! Glad to have your camera-eye view of the parade.

Sincerely,
gregglory
