Rose Bowl Parade - Day 2 and 3

We were supposed to attend the Equestfest but it was cancelled due to worries of spreading a virus that was infecting the horses. So we went to the Reagan library instead. Roger and I have been there before but this time we had a docent tour guide - nice because it was very crowded. We have been to many of the Presidential Libraries but this one of my favorites - well done and the property is gorgeous.

Piece of the Berlin Wall

Judy for President!



Friday was the Band Fest at Pasadena College. It was cool and misting on and off but what an experience! The high school bands from Nevada, Georgia and Oklahoma were awesome! Martin Luther King High School's band, from Georgia, is called "King of Halftime" - need to be really great with a name like that and they were fantastic! The "Pride of Broken Arrow" from Oklahoma is a band like no other you have ever seen! They have won more awards, including Grand Nationals, than any other band in the world! Innovative uniforms, choreography and music. They even rode 40 "go cart" type bikes around the field - playing instruments while pedaling or riding on them!



We had a "tame" New Year's Eve with dinner and cards! Celebrated on east coast time while on the west coast so midnight was at 9 pm!!
