LOVE IT!!!!!!!
I realized I was enjoying the atmosphere so much that I didn't even see some of these "floats."
Thanks for the recap!

I love this parade. Whenever in town, I never miss it. All I can say is,"the formerly 'king' orange has been replaced by the mango". Never has a tradition been so successfully usurped. Miami still has something to call it's own.
