Flower Parade 2008

Saturday 26th April 2008

It feels like the first warm spring day so far and I am waiting eagerly at Sassenheim for the annual flower parade to pass by. The schedule time is 12:10 noon but the flower carousels didn’t arrived until 12:40. It is a relatively long wait under the spring sun heat, which is rather warm. The theme of the flower parade this year is called ‘holiday’. Therefore the procession comprises of 20 large floats interspersed by marching bands, most of the floats displays are around holiday destination such as India with beautiful elephants, Schiphol airport control tower, ski and snowboarding, Swiss Alps, and many others. It is a celebration of colors and a proclamation of flowers, so beautifully displayed and a feast to the eyes.
