Easter Parade in Eastern Toronto

When I think of an Easter Parade I think of this. Somehow when I was growing up I never even heard of Toronto's Easter Parade, so when I found out there is one we went down Sunday afternoon to check it out. The parade is organized by the Toronto Beaches Lion's Club.

It was lots of fun. Near the beginning came the Easter Bunny himself. He was surrounded by nearly a dozen very aggressive, gun-toting bodyguards...



There were several antique and classic emergency vehicles...

Somehow I remember Blinky being better than this...

There was also a lone Harlem Globetrotter...


Various dogs...


Lots of beauty queens...


And since there were voters at the parade the politicians showed up as well...

I think most people thought the Shriners stole the show. Not only did they have the loudest music, they danced. No video, sorry.

Check it out next year!!
