pxlbarrel, I do not recognize that! Where is that pic taken?

He's one of the drummers in the Golden California parade at DCA.

He's one of the drummers in the Golden California parade at DCA.

I have never heard of that. Is the Golden California Parade still on? (not Block Party Bash right?)
And the drums are set up on that big thing, and he jumps up and plays them??
Any details would be great!

Oh, I have feeling it's not on anymore but I could be wrong. I took that photo a few years ago. The parade celebrated the diversity of California (what else?!). I have lots of photos from it. Maybe I can post them over the next few days. There were even people dressed up as the Golden Gate Bridge and Chinese Take-out containers. (yah, that was interesting.)

There is a float where the drums are way up in the air and they're tethered to the top. While drumming, they jump around (while tethered) and hence the shot that makes it look like he's floating.

AlbertanMom- I think that is the parade from when DCA first opened. It was a beautiful parade. I was very sad to see it go.

Tree All Gone!

This was taken as we were heading back to our room at 6:00 a.m. We were on the 5th floor. This was taken before they realized that the entire lobby will have to be stripped and redone!

A few years ago:

The Eureka Parade....... we adored it.
I couldn't believe they took it out so soon. The music was beautiful - the floats were amazing. I only took a few pictures, no video. I just knew we'd be back the next year - and it was already gone! What were they thinking!!!!!!!!!?????????

...at least, to me when I was 4!

 

[Albertan mom]

That is funny. DS wouldn't go on that ride when he was 5. He thought it was a long tunnel, and it freaked him out. Now he is 7, and he went on it though!
