Geelong Gala Day Christmas Parade


Geelong's very own Dame Edna 'Average' apparently

Sod the sleigh, hippy santa's strangest form of transport yet.

These fine people are actually advertising a shop where you can buy 'lifelike animal sculptures' to put in your garden ! Imagine your very own life size fibreglass elephant in your back yard, simply amazing.
This is 'Half Cat' the Geelong Cats Aussie Rules Footy Team mascot, in a lime green sports Ute of course
And then it rained. In fact it really lashed it down. I don't know they moan about some supposed drought here, but it has rained every day this week and its the first day of summer next sunday !

The forecast was so bad for major storms with high winds and heavy rain that the rest of the Gala Day events on the waterfront were cancelled.
