Gasparilla 2006

We went to the Gasparilla parade yesterday! It's a celebration of a pirate who plundered the west coast of Florida for almost 40 years. Yup. A celebration of stealing. Pirates are fun, drunken people! Talk like a pirate!

We missed the pirate ships dropping the pirates at the start of the parade, but we saw the parade, a whole lot of drunk people, and one pair of boobs! Here are some parade pictures:

People lined up in boats behind us. That was some party they had in the water, hours before the parade started! Kegs, coolers of beer, and way too many people in each boat...

A few floats...

A tribute on the back of a firemen's float...

Sunburnt me and Will...
