Pride and Joy

The main event of Vancouver's Pride Week took place this afternoon under a blazing sun -- the Pride & Joy parade through the streets of the city's West End.  We were lucky enough to secure front row seats along Beach Avenue.  The crowds were enormous and playful, reveling in the sunshine and the wonderful parade that seemed to take literally hours to pass by.  This has truly become one of the major events of the city's year.  These boys had a great time ...

We had politicians from the right (Hedy Fry) and left (Libby Davies) ...

... boys and girls having fun in the sun ...

...and dykes on bikes

But mostly we had boys on floats!

Happy Pride Day, Vancouver!!
