Leiden Boat Parade...

After a day in The Hague, we headed into Leiden to see the annual boat parade. As always, the canals were lined with spectators.

We found a great place to sit near the end of the route so we wouldn’t miss any of the action. The boats were decorated in a wide variety of themes from scary clown....

...to cross-dressing mermaid with giant octopus...

...to floating crates of beer.
