we got the parade around 11. During that time we walked around and we ate our jerk chicken and rice and peas..
We finally got in our sections !!! My section was D'Lizard hence the green costume! And waited to cross the stage..we all crossed to PALANCE :-P



After we crossed we waited for Jean and Dinah to cross ...the section Rajean, Nicole and Sheri was in.
Once they were done we wait on di run to jump up!!!
I stayed close by SOCA SWEETNESS'S truck (best soca dj right now) and whined to his vibes!!!


We were whining up our waistlines the rest of the day until around 7pm.
of course before we left we bumped into a few ppl we knew from back here and from the dot also.
