One World Day 2018


Bhutanese 
This festival is usually the last Sunday in April; but, i think, the construction of a new bridge over Doan Brook may have delayed the date. Three weeks later in summer, and it was still 86°F. The parade of gardens starts at noon. Some nationalities marched who do not have a garden, or one pending: Catalan, Bhutanese, Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Uzbek, and Indonesian.

It has been 100 years since World War I ended, and some nations became states again. The Latvian group, and the Lithuanians made it a point to have that written on their banners. The Lithuanians had the largest contingent in this parade.
The marching in these parades is often start and stop walking. Precision is not a concern, but the Chinese carried a dragon, and that  is worth seeing.

In the Shakespeare Garden, actors from Rubber City Theatre performed scenes and speeches from (at least) Taming of the Shrew, and Hamlet.
