I don't normally watch the
Rose Parade on television. When I do, I usually fall asleep, but I decided this year was the year I see it live. My friends and I woke up in the dark after only a few hours of sleep to drive down to Pasadena and stake out a spot behind the die-hards who camped out all night. It was such a great experience! Now I know why parents drag their sleepy kids to watch this 120 year old tradition. The floats were amazing (the only things not allowed on a float are paint and artificial flowers) and the marching bands were spectacular. I'm up for doing it again, maybe (maybe!) even camping out.
