Bjorn and I met up at the Mermaid Parade this year. We met a couple of Bjorn's friends, who met some more of their friends, who met and made more friends -- it was a social snowball. Mariah & Danielle looked great, so people kept stopping them to take their picture, or to have pictures taken with them -- including the Sea Rabbit and its human creator.
The whole thing felt very much like part of a Brooklyn continuum. We saw crazy colorful animal dude again -- Bjorn & Mariah see him around Manhattan, and I saw both last week and last year at Brooklyn Pride. And the lime green Charger reappeared the next day on 7th Ave, in the 7th Avenue Street Fair.
I took 941 photos (a personal record) and whittled them down to 281 at Flickr.
