..okay, so there was this parade in brooklyn yesterday.. i wasn’t there, but i sorta remembered being there some time ago.. and i might have snapped a few photos also that day..
..commencing flickr photo dump..
..oh, and a happy father’s day to all fathers out there.. 😀
A final photo from the parade.. A guy in a blue fish costume..
Still from the parade.. this guy opted to look like a barnacle-encrusted abomination.. which seemed to suit him quite well..
On a sidenote, this guy was also running around scaring kids with his mask. (Quite funny if you ask me..)
A sea urchin perhaps? Who knows.. the first thought that comes to my mind is S&M.. 😀
i’m thinking of making this week’s theme about the “freaks” at the Mermaid Parade.. hmm..
More freaks! Out from the depths of the ocean, here comes Godzilla!
Alluding to the fact that this guy is Asian, and wearing what looks like (..to me) a dinosaur costume, I deduced that he’s portraying Godzilla.. or maybe a blue Barney?? Whatever he is, he’s rockin’ it.. rawr!
A bit of Godzilla trivia:
“Godzilla” Gojira (ゴジラ) is a combination of two Japanese words: gorira (ゴリラ lit. “gorilla”) and kujira (鯨 (ãã˜ã‚‰) lit. “whale”)
It’s that time of the year.. the temperature’s climbing.. hemlines are climbing.. the freaks are out again.. To signal the start of summer, it’s the Mermaid Parade! whee!!
