Tawa's 2005 Christmas Parade took place on Saturday, December 3rd, on a morning that started off cloudy and windy. By 11am, when the parade began, it was no longer cloudy and windy. It was sunny and windy instead, although the wind wasn't too strong. By the time the parade was over, it was rather cloudy again. Below is a selection of photos from this year's occasion which seemed to involve more participants than previously - all good stuff! The first eleven shots show preparations being made before commencement of the parade.
