nyc pride march

Hope you all had an enjoyable Pride weekend! I certainly did. I've got the exhaustion and the bags under my eyes to prove it. Then again, I was also out celebrating while battling the stubborn remnants of the flu. But if anyone asks, I'm all haggard and spent because I'm totally bad ass, not germ-ridden. Pass it on.

Anyhoo, I was lucky enough to secure a spot on a balcony overlooking Fifth Avenue for today's Pride March. Sadly, my lack of a good zoom lens prevented me from taking any photos worthy of posting, despite my awesome location. I did manage to get this one with my cell phone which isn't too shabby...

And I also filmed a bit of the party, in particular the rollicking response to the Caribbean-themed float passing by underneath. It's sort of Blair Witch-like with the jerky camera movements but I guarantee you'll smile through the motion sickness when you get a load of these gay boys bopping around to Rihanna's "Umbrella." Check it out...

More to come later.
