Rose Parade 01/01/11

Click this picture for just a few ...well, 87...photos from our Rose Parade adventure. We absolutely loved this, despite near-freezing temperatures! We will definitely come do this again. It was especially fun to have our friend Amy Kaye join us for the parade, to meet new friends on the street, to run into Gloria and Charlie Goss (who we had worked with at the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque in Oct), and to see Gregg's cousins Dan and Marge.

We haven't yet figured out how to be there earlier to work on floats which we would like to do another year. The issue is parking the RV in a safe place near the float work areas and not paying an arm and leg to do so. Parking at the Rose Stadium is $100 per night with NO hook-ups. We just won't do that. Street parking not allowed until the 29th and we wouldn't want to leave the RV there, unattended for a full day. RV parks are pretty far away. Gotta figure this one out for a future year.
