Here is the link for the whole parade. If you just want to see the donkeys they start after 1 hour 25 minutes.

Preparing for the parade | |

Grooming is importanat |

Carlos and John waiting for something to happen |
|
Loki, Suzanne, Muzzy and Browlyn (I'm sorry, I'm pretty sure that isn't spelled right) lined up and ready to go |
|
Leo, Dave, Georgette and Jacque patiently waiting for what's next |

We
had these little cuties, Wilbur and Keebler in front of us and the
Saguaro Park Rangers behind us. The guy driving their little stagecoach
said they don't mind standing all day. But once they start moving they
want to be in front. That would be fun for 3 miles wrestling 2 little
head strong minis........!! |
|
YIPPEE........finally, we're moving towards the start of the parade up by the large buildings (the Tucson VA center) ahead |
|
This is about half way in the parade. It doesn't look like it but the sides of the street were deep with people, the estimate was about 200,000 watching, not counting TV coverage. The route was over 3 miles and there were people EVERYWHERE.....!! This parade is the largest parade in the U.S. without any engines or mechanical vehicles. It's either people walking or animals walking, there were 125 entries, which makes for a long parade. |

Lynn and Linda....... we teased Linda, said her outfit was why we won a trophy...!! LOL |

That looked like loads of fun. The donkeys and their handlers looked fabulous. The little mini horses were cute too. Thank you for what you do for and with these darling donkeys.
It was a lot of fun and the donkeys really enjoy getting out in public.
