The parade was a success! Joining me were
@sellinodan , Lenier (I forgot his @),
@Primus323, and
@Chaaai. I only got one halfway decent screenshot, I'm afraid. This was towards the beginning of the parade:

Afterwards, we went down to Club 47 to dance some. A random passerby provided additional merriment via his party popper. (Sorry I didn't get a shot, screenshots aren't quite my forte, eh?)
Anyway, given that this was done on pretty short notice, we pulled it off well and folks enjoyed themselves. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time we've done a "regatta" of this sort. It was easy to organise, didn't take long, and would be smart to incorporate into events where a parade would make sense, Pride, in particular.
Happy Thanksgiving!
