MARDI GRAS PARADE ~ LAKE WALES, FL

                Mardi Gras ** Lake Wales
We totally did not expect the parade to be as much fun as it was.  A small town that put on a great parade.  The floats were "ginormous" and the people threw tons of beads!  Caps were also thrown and we caught many ~ which we passed out to children along the route that didn't get any.  
  Stand and be proud ~
GOD BLESS AMERICA
Chet ~ "King Zues" 
(Chet is a neighbor from up north. He informed us about the parade in Lake Wales.  He was the King, on the float he worked on, behind the open-mouthed lady.  Wonder what she saw?!)
The pirates, on KAOS, were great!
Black and gold beads from them.
Their float was huge!


FLOUNDERING NATION
  This was the largest float, the last float, the loudest float, the one throwing the most beads and a great end to a great parade. 
After singing and line dancing, these "cowgirls" also threw beads into the crowd. 

King Zues with his court.
Coming or going these ladies,
'dancing with their friends'
were hysterical!
