    You sure do seem to find a lot of celebrations/parades. Vivid photos, as always. I love all the colour!

    Happy WW!

    If this parade was here in the U.S. in December, I think they wouldn't be quite as happy ;)

    Great Pictures. It makes me wish I would have taken more pictures of women in costume when I was in Jakarta and Bangkok. You don't see that here in Germany.

    I am looking forward to returning to Asia one day.

    Thanks for stopping by my Blog.

    Pretty. Those pictures actually reminded me of Mardi Gras. I am from the South and never missed a Mardi Gras, until I moved away. I love their costumes. Happy WW!
