Trail Days (part 3): The Hikers Parade

Part of the trail days festival is the hiker parade, The hikers all march through town, while the townpeople pelt us with waterballoons and garden hoses. A guess the concept is the bathe the hikers. It was fun on a hot day.

Water fight between a local hostel owner and a hiker with a waterbottle.

 The townspeople even lined the roofs of mainstreet.

 Supersoakers were fair game, I was not informed of this fact prior to the parade.

 Some hikers on the wrong side of things.

 We hadn't even hit mainstret yet and the soaking began.

 Hikers waiting for the parade to begin.

More hikers, still no order at all.
