We stayed on the fifteenth floor. Attended the pageant, which was lovely, then got to sleep. Big day tomorrow.
This is the view looking left out of the hotel window the next morning - Thanksgiving. A little soupy out there.
We were both in the shower when room service knocked. Oops. Food was pretty good. Certainly plentiful. Thus fortified, we headed down to stake out a spot to watch the parade. We went down an hour before it started so we could be in front.
We got a spot sitting on the curb and sat drinking coffee. There was a pretty good crowd there.
Bill - waiting for it to start.
And finally it did. Apparently, last year Charlotte's Thanksgiving Day parade was the fourth largest in the US! And this year was supposed to be even bigger.
This car looked really cool and after I took this pictures, some guy got up on the trunk and stood there juggling.

This guy had some fake legs swinging down the sides of this chicken suit. It struck me really funny and made me laugh and point.
I was enjoying the parade a lot. Then. This happened. This woman in skin-tight pants just pushed through the people behind us and stood on the street. Right. In. Front of me.
She talked loudly and constantly. Eventually she left. But the view on her way out was no better than the view of her ass. No, she wasn't pregnant....
After we could see again, look who came! Why, it's Captain Jack Sparrow!
This group was amazing. One guy actually was rolling this ball down the street by - like walking on it. It was rolling with him on it. It was really something. I bet he was tired by the time he got to the end.
