Christmas Parade

It was the Wimborne Christmas parade today. Oh my god, the crowds, it was crazy. It was such a lovely atmosphere. There were morris dancers, marching bands, lots and lots of people and no rain! Oliver and I went along and he had a ball, thanks to the steam engines and the tractors that were there.



I think every man and his dog was there. It is a quaint little village, I do like living here and usually you run into someone you know, like today. You can see it was a miserable grey day though.

Do towns in Australia do this sort of thing?

Oh, lovely! I think Christmas parades are perfectly teamed with a dreamy white Christmas. This morning on TV though there was footage from a parade held in Adelaide. The crowds weren't that big but the floats were mighty impressive. I never knew Australia had one.

We have one in the City each year. We will probably take Lacey in next year and have a look. It's pretty big and they have a lot to look at.

Bondi doesn't have anything like that... although we do have drunk British backpackers roaming the streets being pretty entertaining... or atleast they think they are. xx

There's nothing like this around my way unfortunately. It looked like a fun day!
