This was the 20th year of the Dance Parade.
I stumbled on it by accident a few years ago,
and was very impressed with the wide range of costumes on
display.
The dancing is lovely too.
You get a real sense of the melting pot that is NYC when
watching.
Costumes, music and dance all melded into unique patterns.
After several days of cool weather, it was a balmy 78 degrees and
sunny for the parade.
Maybe a bit too warm - especially for the dancers.
As with all NYC parades, gaps in the action can be a bit
tedious.
But with visuals this pretty it’s worth sticking it out for
at least a while.
Here are some blogs from the Tartan Day Parade…
