Nanaimo Empire Days Parade Another Hit



144th Parade Get Nod From Weatherman

The sun also made an appearance this year, along with Queen Victoria for the 144th annual Empire Days Parade in beautiful downtown Nanaimo.

The parade route was once again packed from one end to the other as over 50 floats thrilled and entertained the crowds which was made up of the very young and the very old.

The top photo catches 'Queen Victoria' and Prince Albert (not as obvious) in a classic '57 Chevy convertible (drool), the mid picture is the great exhibit from the VIEX featuring a stuffed toy Ferris wheel, and last but not least the Seattle Motorcycle Drill Team who wowed the crowd with their precision riding aboard their trusty steeds.
