HEY BABY, IT’S THE FIFTH OF JULY!
July 5th, 2011 by Clark Humphrey

What I did this holiday weekend:

Walked half way around Lake Union. (Fun fact: Lake Union Park is a great space when there’s an event in it; otherwise, it’s a big empty spot.)

Briefly attended an alley party with live bands (some good) and the usual snacks and beverages. Neglected to drink any alcohol.

Saw the fireworks in person, which I hadn’t done last year. Attempted to shoot pictures; none really turned out.

Only spent an hour on the bus during the post-fireworks traffic. Got home. Crashed.

Was up promptly this morning to witness Seattle’s “the biggest parade ever,” part of the huge Lions Club convention in town. The event was officially titled The International Parade of Nations. (What other kind of parade of nations could there be?)

This event, I did get decent pictures of.

Caught part of the parade from Top Pot Doughnuts, which was an especially fun place from which to see the following float.
