#220 Ithaca Festival Parade (2)

So many photos! So Ithaca Festival finsihed yesterday. We had the pleasure of seeing Ithaca Festival for the first time. The parts that we saw weren't the "Hippifest" that some promised us but just the sort of small town festival that you'd expect of a place such as Ithaca. You go out and suddenly there are crowds (not like Oxford Street on weekends but crowds nevertheless). And you get a chance of seeing all the weirdos that live in Ithaca all in one place. And all the normal people (there are a few), too.

Here are some more photos of the Ithaca Festival Parade on Thursday. There was a previous batch of those yesterday.



I am always impressed by people on these wooden leg extender things. Particularly if they walk a mile with them. It's probably not very difficult though. I just never tried. No idea what these guys were representing.



This is the Ithaca Vespa club. They made a lot of noise and smell.



Again, no idea what they are representing but this is a robot and robots are cool.



And finally, there's not only a Vespa club (above) and a Volve club (not shown) in Ithaca but also a Mini club. Unfortunately, no classic Mini was there, just the new fake Minis produced by BMW.
