Carnaval de Blois

The 20th Carnaval de Blois was today, and what a spectacle it was.  Loads and loads of people came out to watch the parade.  It's probably one of the more interesting things I've seen here!

Not sure what the "pant" situation was here?

Almost indecent, dude.  

These giraffes were so cool.  Two people walking in sync!

 Again, not sure what's going on here...this was a parade for kids, right?

La piece de resistance...Americ!   And nothing says "America" quite like line dancing, flag bandanas, motorcyles and cowboy hats.

Here's a news clip about the carnaval:  http://videos.tf1.fr/jt-we/a-blois-c-est-carnaval-7089000.html
I (barely) spotted myself in the video.  0:17 very very right, nearly off the screen...but still on there enough to know it's me hahah.  Feeling pretty cool right about now.
