Provo has a parade on the fourth. It is said that there are about 250,000-300,00 spectators that come to this event. They have signs that say you cant camp out until 3:00 the day before on University Avenue and 5:00 am on the morning of the parade on center street. It is crazy. So we wanted to go to the parade and have a decent seat so my friend and I decided to get up early we left around 5:30 and it was already packed! people were laying everywhere. Some sleeping and others talking and scouting out there territory. We found a spot finally. Than around 8:00 I went home and got Darrell and Addie. They had runners in the parade that came through around 7:30. It was a lot of fun and the parade was good but I still think that any parade without handing out candy is not all that fun. I know sad but hey the idea of camping out was so much fun. Maybe that's why the parade is such a big event for the thrill of staking out your territory?
The best floats were probably the huge scooby doo and the star-wars characters. They had some princess floats but I didn't get a good picture of those.
