The Minneapolis May Day parade. Best parade of the year. It is funny to think of a parade nowadays with no corporate sponsors … this one is run by a puppet theatre company on Lake Street.

The kids laughed and laughed at the bikes that went by before the “official” parade, then Ada would walk out into the street every time to see what was next. “Yai, yai – Mee–um, TIGERS!”

Afterward we headed down to Powderhorn Park,  but it got windy and cool, so they wanted to leave. An hour later the weather was beautiful again. C’est la vie.
