Provincetown's biggest Carnival Parade ever
Not your average carnival; Fairy Tales on Parade
Photos by Pat Brooks
arnivals in Ptown are unlike any other. Yesterday's parade on Commercial Street was child-like in its innocence and glee, and cctoday's intrepid photag Pat Brooks was there with her camera along with an estimated 100,000 others. 
Everyone loves a parade! And, in Provincetown, the annual Carnival Parade is the single busiest day of the year and the place to see and be seen! This year’s parade - Fairy Tales - was sure to be the best yet! Dozens of floats of all sizes and shapes will travel down Commercial Street starting in the east and working west. Fairies were in abundance, and even the Pinoccio twins showed up and below... 
... among the revelers were Three Blind Mice, Jack & The Beanstalk, the King and Queen of the day's events, and finally...
...Three Little Maids, some serious "hunks", Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, a Witches beyond number, the Cheshire Cat, a pair of Robin Hoods and some which had to be seen from both sides.
