Happy St. Patrick's Day. It's the day after Celtic Fest and the Vancouver St. Patrick's Day parade. I am still wearing my green Gung Haggis Fat Choy t-shirt.
Being in a parade doesn't allow you to take pictures of your group, so it's always interesting to find pictures on flickr.
Steven Duncan took some pictures of us setting up. Check out his flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/9057324@N08/sets/72157604144696435/

Stuart MacKinnon and I sat on the front of my car with our kilts on… and paddled. We tried to get a dragon boat named “Fraser” into the parade, but it ran into trailer problems. So we improvised. It was quite funny, because a few people yelled out “Where's your boat?” And Stuart insisted on paddling with my Chinese dragon hand puppet stuck on his hand. I don't think I ever saw it come off, until there was a glass of Guinness in his hand after the parade.

Our Gung Haggis Fat Choy dragon boat team carried our new Chinese parade dragon. Below Raphael and Leanne lead the dragon, while Michael wears a Chinese lion head and terrorizes the volunteers! |
