Morecambe carnival did well. Over 30,000
people came & stood to watch the parade go by, undeterred by the gentle
rain that fell.
When Linda, our home help, came on
Tuesday, she was full of it. Her girls had really enjoyed it. They thought it
one of the most exciting things they’d ever experienced in their life.
Linda herself is already getting excited
about next year’s carnival. Her sister is a cub leader & the cubs have
already decided to put a float in then. Linda, an artistic soul, is going to lend
a hand with the decorating of the float.
After hearing all her enthusiasm, I
showed her some of the pictures we took of magnificent Bloemencorso, the Aalsmeer
flower festival as its colourful floral floats passed through the outskirts of
Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
Here's a few for you to see....

| What an eel! |
 |
| It's getting hard to drive! |

 |
| Even the dead are getting into the act! |
 |
| And the not so dead |
Linda was really wowed! She’s even
beginning to wonder if she could afford to take her girls for a weekend away to
see it. Her particular love was the “Swan Lake” float.
