Wow, I thought the dogs pulling the wooden carts decorated with flowers were fantastic! and to see that number of saints together too!

I totally want to go next year. Not sure by then my boys would be able to make a long trek like the parade but I could see on the video there were some oldies in the group so anything is possible. I bet it was amazing to be there!

we went when wilson was about 1 1/2, we lived in belgium and joined in, although the one we joined in with was in Middlekerke. it does look very impressive. we could arrange one for over here, maybe to raise money for the Dogs Trust or something. it would save the money to go over to belgium.
