San Francisco Pride Parade

























































































































































Watch out girl scouts and marching bands....San Francisco knows how to have a great 3 hour parade! I went to experience the 2008 San Francisco Pride Parade in downtown sunday morning. I went with Rose, my roommate, and 2 of her friends. What an experience! The parade started with hundreds of chicks on bikes, or as some of them consider themselves, Dykes on Bikes. Then more fun to be seen! Yes, of course there were those that felt that clothing was optional, but I figure this site should be G rated! If you want to see some pics, let me know! There was some celebrity grand marshalls: Margaret Cho and Cyndi Lauper! The mayor was there and police chief. I just thought that it was really great to see so much support of the gay community. It was amazing! The united support of families and their kids was great to see! Plus all the marriages that have happened in the past few weeks due to the new law allowing same sex marriages was wonderful to see as well! The pictures are pretty much self-explanatory, the 2nd to last pic is of Rose and Margaret Cho. The picture with the guy and girl on the car with NEWSOME 2008 around him, is the mayor of San Francisco. Gavin Newsome was the key player in getting the same sex marriage ban lifted! I had a great time, memories for a lifetime!!!!!
