Sunday started out with sunshine and blue skies, biting cold but with some warm colors starting to gather on the steps across from the apartment.
…then, within two hours, it was Carnivale.
The big parade rerouted this year, passing directly beneath my apartment window. We organized a party and watched the 3 1/2 hours of floats, bands, costumes, and creatures roll past.
I’d done the parade from the street before, but the bird’s-eye perspective was really amazing.
