My last post from this year's Santa Claus Parade shows a float sponsored by a travel company and showing us a nice warm scene. It was the turtle that I really liked in this one - he looks so joyful flying above the waves!
That's one fine-looking turtle. I've never seen one fly before, though.
Our condo in Ft. Lauderdale had a canal in back of it and the canal was filled with turtles. But people came from all over the area to catch the turtles because they made turtle soup.
Finally, the homeowners association posted "No Fishing" and "No Trespassing" signs which worked but weren't 100% effective.
What a fantastic series of floats Pat.. the street hockey was excellent and so relevant to Canada and I sure hope Finn finds Santa :)Flying turtles are always fun.. how come you're stopping the floats now, there must have been heaps more no?

Looks like this turtle or tortoise will certainly win ANY race.
He does look happy to be soaring above the water and that guy in the back is missing the whole thing.
I am enjoying your float series. My kind of floats.

Who doesn't like a flying turtle!
lovely the artist was very creative
Oh, shoot! For a moment there I thought that was the University of Maryland's terrapin. Guess not. :-)
Not sure I have ever heard of a flying turtle but I have to admit I really like this float. :)
We all need that bit of joy in the dreariness of winter.
Quite an impressive float!
my turtle pal!

Great turtle on that float.
Floating on a float! A very tropical looking scene, this one!
We have turtles but they don't fly.
It was a great series, Pat !!
