We got to march in the Pride Parade. I can't believe it. What an amazing experience.
With our host family, Carolyn and Micheal, we were invited by them to march with Letitia James. We got to meet her too! Letitia James is a Public advocate of New York. And we walked with her!
She was fun. EVERYTHING was fun.
Amazing people, amazing costumes, amazing atmosphere. Its so good to be in such a tollerate place at such a time. It was cool to see politicians, Reverand's and policemen everywhere getting into the festivities. And really, they're only human. So it was nice to see the 'unnatural' ness of it all just come together and make this huge party!
Saw so many boobs, dicks and butts. Mostly boobs. It was great.
The only downside to walking IN the parade was that we couldn't WATCH the parade. I really wanted to see the rest of the floats amd costumes - but thats what we have the internet for!
Unfortunately I didn't get many photos on my phone, only videos. So i'll be uploading properly once I get home :)
One of my finds at the thrift store from the day earlier... not the best photos but whatever.
We just arrived on Boston. Still hot, but not as humid. Had a 4 hour bus trip... which came an hour late... flipping lame. All I've eaten today is a banana and some nuts. Not coooooooool!!
Here I conclude my short thingo for today... till our next adventure. This is Ella signing out.
