DSF Parade

So, the Shopping Festival Parade was just too good to pass up posting pictures of. As we were walking back down the Creek to the carnival area from dinner we suddenly heard marching band music and hurried over to the road just about the time the parade was about the pass. A very short parade indeed, but definitely fun and notable.

The Emirati Marching Band. Surprisingly talented, and who knew Emirati's could play instruments, let alone have a Marching Band!

Coincidentally, the band stopped and did a little number right in front of us.

Next came the human shopping bags, naturally. The parade of course, is purely meant to promote shopping, so, the theme was pretty commercial/materialistic heavy.

Even bigger human shopping bags. We knew we were in for some fun when they passed...
