Floating Gay Pride Parade

They say that Amsterdam has the biggest Gay Pride Parade outside of the United States. It was certainly an extravagant and beautiful one. What is really amazing about it to me is that there are a lot of companies supporting their gay employees by sponsoring a float. See below for IBM, WaterNet (the water company), TNT Post (The Post Office). I have also heard that the police have a float some years.

Thanks to our buddy Shawn, we had front row seats atop his canal boot house on the Prinsengracht. What a sight!
