Caribana Toronto 2007 2/2

This footage is kind of fun, despite the many security guards who get in the way of viewing the dancers.

This one had good shots of the dancers pulling the big floats behind them that kind of look like peacock feathers.

Guess what? I didn't make it to Caribiana today. I went to the gym this morning, and then when I came home I did some stuff and then fell asleep. When I got up I meant to go but I looked on the net and all of the festivities were over. I missed the Caribana Parade! But we went out on a long walk anyway, and though I missed the parade with all the people in costumes we saw tons of people that were in town for Caribana. What a crowd!

It's good that I have flickr for photos. I took a lot of photos tonight but none of them were really "caribana" type photos.
