Christmas Parades at Vero Beach, Florida

This Vero Beach is great for parades.  Jan and I were treated to back to back Christmas parades.  On December 6th there was a dynamite illuminated boat parade that passed withing 100 feet of our mooring ball in Vero Beach Marina.   The next day there was a quintessential home town Christmas parade down Ocean Drive.  It lasted for over an hour with dozens and dozens of home town businesses and interests represented with floats.  All of the police department marched and got a big round of applause.  The local high school band turned out in force.All in all a good time was had by all.

 Here is a pic of one of the floats.

The  day before we watched a boat parade as they came by our mooring ball less than  100 feet away.

Then as a special treat the kayak club came by one night caroling through the mooring field.

Vero Beach really knows how to celebrate Christmas on the water.
