Charivari day 13 July

The sky was blue, the sun was hot, the music was loud and the costumes were bright. Charivari day in Folkestone.  What a day.  I have been going ever since its inception. I think yesterdays was the best ever.

Assembling the parade in the Old Fish Market.  The photos don't really do it justice as these drummers were actually dancing while drumming.
  

The parade proceeded around the Old Harbour.

Onto the Leas

And finished on the bandstand. The bands commissioned for the event were playing a variety of music there was dancing, singing, ice creams.  A really chilled out atmosphere and good music. What's not to love.

All in All, A fabulous day.  Well done Strange Cargo - the organisers and all the schools that were involved.
