I have some pictures from this weekends Flamingo Festival, but before I get to them, I have exciting news...I bought a plane ticket to Colombia!!! I've been wanting to buy a ticket for some time, and I finally decided to do it. The price was right and the timing was perfect!!!
On to the Flamingo Fest. The parade was along the lines of your typical town parade, floats, cars, and a few added boats. But what made this parade special, was that everyone was wearing pink and feathers. It was really fun to see everyone in the town wearing pink and carrying balloons. I was genuinely surprised at how many people actually dressed for the occasion.
The "gallery show" that accompanied the festival was also rather surprising. I think I'll just let the pictures do the talking...

OH. MY. GOD. These flamingos are amazing. I'm so obsessed, particularly with the Harry Potter one.
I imagine this is your mom's idea of heaven.
Congrats on your ticket to Columbia! When exactly are you going? The Sunday NYT from 2 weeks ago had an article on Peru that you might enjoy:

Well, I'm headed back to Michigan tomorrow! It's a little weird because I feel like I haven't been gone long enough to warrant a trip back. That said, I can't wait to see everyone! We'll have a drink for you.
