On Tuesday Boston
hosted the world’s biggest Superbowl party complete with a parade. An estimated
1.5 million people showed up. Human beings were packed like sardines into
trains, buses, and cars trying to get into the parade. Not a problem for us
critters. We had plenty of room under the seats and in the overhead luggage
compartments. As for all of the sunflower seed shells on the floor, well, they
just blamed it on a bunch of rowdy two legged fans.
The Woodpile got into the parade an hour early only to find
some fans had arrived 4 hours early and it was really crowded. The only thing
we didn’t factor in, was how we were going to see the parade over the heads of
this crowd. We thought about sneaking up to the fence but then we realized
we would be crushed under foot. Junior suggested we all climb up into the tree. A
brilliant idea.
I had checked the weather forecast before leaving. It was
supposed to be sunny and 50 degrees. However, during the parade, a squall hit Boston, and we had near
white out conditions at moments. The funny thing is the snow flakes were red,
white, and blue. I was told it was a special type of snow called “confetti.”
I thought I would share a few photos from the parade.
