Local Sights: Cherry Blossom Parade & Festival






Hello one & all it's DJ Dizzy here & once again it's time to Dizzy things up. A while back in the month of March in Macon GA I had the pleasure of scoping out this year's Cherry Blossom Parade & Festival. Though it wasn't the best parade by far the costumes & decorations were very good. They also have the crowning of the years Cherry Blossom Royalty as well as other events such as the fire fighters competition. Not to mention many other events such as the music festival.


Here's a video of one of the events as an example:

As for the parade itself there were a few local participants involved such as volunteers from TV & radio stations & multiple companies. The theme of course was pink since it's all about the cherry blossoms. They even got their mascot in on it. Who's name is Pinky the Poodle. Who looks something like this:



(Try shaking that off)


But anyway although it wasn't the best parade the events were pretty good but if you're looking to see something like this yourself well unfortunately this is the last one they did for this year mainly do to lack of funding but there's a chance it'll come back in the future depending on the situation. But anyway that's one of the events that I had the pleasure of seeing a while back.


Also as a bonus I wanted to show some pictures of a trip that I took over to the airport in Atlanta:
