Hugh's Views & News 
Thanks Hugh, sorry for being so very late, but its been a full week of fun and celebrations (Not US Thanksgiving as I am in Canada) but lots of other stuff to be thankful for so only catching up late on Sunday evening.
Thanks for sharing your link over at https://esmesalon.com/tag/wordlesswednesday/
See you again on Wednesday
Love those baloons. The only reason to watch that parade. Glad you could see it though 🤣😎🙃
Yes, we were actually there and managed to make our way to the front of the crowds. It was wonderful to watch.
Heh heh. I’ve always watched the Macie’s Parade only to watch those large balloons blow away.. What can I say, stupidity can sometimes be a fun thing to watch.
No loose balloons at the one I was at. I enjoyed the parade, even if it was very long and we were standing in cold winds and sleet.
I remember the Hello Kitty phase well – I think it was the mid eighties – along with Chia pets and all kinds of odd things. I worked in San Fran and you couldn’t go into Japan Town or Chinatown without being assailed by a whole universe of the Hello Kitties ….
I was trying recall the Hello Kitty phase, so thank you for reminding me of when it occurred. Toy phases have certainly changed a lot since my childhood days.
Too many strange things to list 😂
Oh, do tell.
I love Kitty 🐈🐈😸😸😸
You don’t see here much these days. At least, I don’t.
No another fad that bit the dust 💜💜🎶
I’m from the U.S. and I don’t think I’ve ever watched the Macy’s parade. I did get to work on a Rose Bowl Parade float one year, though… that was fun.
Was that part of the Macy’s parade or a separate parade, Janis?
The Rose Parade takes place on New Years Day in Pasadena, California. All the floats are covered with flower petals and other organic materials… they are pretty spectacular.
Wow! That sounds like a great parade. London has a New Year’s Day parade too, although I don’t think it’s as spectacular as the Thanksgiving one.
Definitely strange… lol
I’m glad you agree.
Oh, yes 😂
nice photo, Hugh :)
Thank you.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, We here in Canada already had our TG about a month ago.

Here in the UK, we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving Day, Esme. But I’m wishing everyone who does celebrate it, a fantastic day.
Yup, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade! We watch some of it every year!
Enjoy this year’s parade. I always love seeing Santa on his sleight at the very end of the parade.
Happy Thanksgiving.
You, too, Hugh. May your turkey be tasty!
We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in The UK, but we’re having a turkey for Christmas dinner, so I’ll be enjoying mine then, Noelle.
Cool Kitty 😀.
My entry here:
Thank you.
A Thanksgiving tradition!
Yes, we don’t have anything like this in the UK, apart from the New Year’s Day parade in London. But it’s not as grand and as big as the Thanksgiving Day parade in New York.
macy’s parade!
Is the right answer.
This makes me smile, Hugh.
That’s good to hear, Dan. It made me smile too when I saw that flying object in the photo.
We used to gather around the TV on Thanksgiving morning to watch the Macy’s Day Parade. Our high school band marched in it one year. It was a very big deal.
Were you in the band, Dan?
I’d heard about the Thanksgiving parade many years ago, and always wanted to see it for real. When I had the chance to do so, not even the cold weather and sleet that day could stop me from standing for what seemed like for many hours watching the parade.
I was not in the band, but I helped raise money so some friends could go. I’m glad you got to see the parade in person.
