This weekend we headed to Virginia Beach for the annual Neptune Festival.
We lined the street with our friends for the parade.
We lined the street with our friends for the parade.
We had to watch our language, because it's against the law to curse while on the parade route in VA Beach. Seriously....it's posted.
On with the parade.........
Apparently, they crown some old guy King Neptune...and give out Mardi Gras beads.
Our friend's little girl loved the princesses.
Bee liked the organ.
J liked this unsung hero of the parade we affectionately called...manure man.
This band was pretty cool; they had some good moves...
but lacked the technique displayed by this tiny dancer.....
Then it was on to the sandcastles
People come from all over the world every year to create and see these famous sand sculptures.
This one is called "Meet the In-Laws"
Here's a side view, which includes the dog house.
This one won first place.
We're still trying to figure out what this one meant.
After all the fun in the sun, it was time to cool off with some creamy frozen custard.
Isn't life grand?
