Beautiful floats this year…people really make an effort. It is nice to see such beautifully, tastefully decorated floats. Well done to everyone!
now let the bordom slowly creep back in till cupmatch
Yes I agree Kathy the floats were good. LOL@ John patiently waiting for cup match!!
I also liked the colorful outfits of the dance and majorette groups. However, there needs to be more smiling especially with the larger dance groups. If dancing is something that you love to do than show it. I mean u dont have to be cheesing the whole way and I understand the tiredness but still when you get in on that performing at least show that you truly enjoy and love it! You just never know who’s watching….
All in all it was a fun day!
iii love my dance group so much
Whoo, whoop! BERMUDA! ….. Bigger and better than ever! Watch out next year!
As we were taught:
“When you look good, you will feel good, and you will do good…Be the best! Never settle for less, by any positive means necessary…
GO BERMUDA!!!! You’re the best! Unity in the Community!!!
Let’s see the Christmas Parade top that!
Excellent BERNEWS and everyone for such a BERMUDAFUL DAY!!!!
