On a gorgeous summer day we joined family members and their friends on a terrace overlooking the parade route at Denman and Davie. Colourful glasses of punch preceded the festivities.
Vancouver's Pride Parade, the fifth largest in the world, celebrated its 35th anniversary in a display of diversity and support from all segments of the population. Over 600,000 viewers were entertained by the parade that passed by for over two hours.
Olympians Mike Janyk (Alpine skier) and Mercedes Nicholl (snowboarder) joined the route as a statement of solidarity with the LGBT community against Russia's newly adopted anti-gay laws.
There was a festive air full of cheers and applause!!
