I know everyone in New York gets really excited about the big Halloween parade, but I have to say that the Tompkins Square Park Halloween Dog Parade on Sunday was 1,000 times better. I went to the people parade last night and I have to say, the dogs had better costumes. I mean, how much sexier is this first picture than the second one??
I rode into the city Sunday and hung out in the park with my friend R.B. for a little while and kicked a soccer ball around. It was a gorgeous day and I was feeling pretty proud of myself because I rode my bike over the Brooklyn Bridge for the first time. It was a little scary when I got into the city. And it was even scarier when I was riding down 1st Avenue and R.B. was riding his skateboard next to me and was holding onto my shoulder while we were going down the street. Somehow, I didn't die. It was good. When I was leaving the park to go watch the Bears lose again, I passed by the dog run where the parade was. I couldn't see much because it was really crowded, but what I did see was amazing. There's something about seeing a Basset Hound dressed as a gladiator that makes me pretty happy. I'm not sure how the dogs feel about dressing up, but everyone seemed to be a good sport about it. I saw a dog dressed as a horse with a little doll riding on him. There was a statue of liberty, an i-phone, and a fireman (my personal favorite). All in all it was a very nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
