We were there on February 10th and loved the parade! The floats are gorgeous and all the stilt-walkers/dancers etc. were very upbeat and friendly, taking the time to high-five and interact with spectators. Our grandkids caught a TON of beads! Our youngest was in a stroller and quite a few of the performers walked over and put beads on her. She loved it! Our group ranged in age from 2 to 64 and we all had fun watching the parade!
