Rose Parade in Pasadena in 2012
For 123 th time the Californian town was the site of one of the loveliest's Event not only in the state, but also in North America. Preparations for the event began at the end of last year.
Tens of thousands of roses, 44 beautiful platform, bright outfits, 16 musical bands and 22 equestrian troupe - this is only a small part of a large-scale festivities. This is not just a procession of groups of people and giant colorful platform decorated with rose petals. Here there is a traditional competition, the result of which will be known the name of the queen of roses, the name of the best team, the most beautiful of the platform and the best orchestra. Naturally, the most honorable award - the queen of roses and the best orchestra. If the first for the year, at least, will be a celebrity, the orchestra will be able to correct their bad financial situation. In total, the event, according to preliminary data, was attended by at least half a million people. The length of the march - about 9 kilometers. There were an event without the demonstrators, who offered to occupy even a parade of roses :) But let's not ranting and see the process of preparing itself hits.
