happy new year!

at the last minute, i stayed in town for new years eve. i cannot explain why have i lived in pasadena for 8 years, and never gone to the parade... i felt like a kid again standing among new friends in the crowd on my tiptoes, trying to see every morsel and the bass drum beating under my feet. it turns out that larger than life reptiles made of nuts and gerbera daisies are just what i needed.

it's amazing that they make those gigantic floats from small items such as nuts and flowers. i can't imagine the amount of work that goes into preparing for something like that. and to think that since the flowers are fresh, they can't even do any work in advance. incredible!

glad you had a good time.

happy 2007, becca. :)
