Bittersweet Moment #20: PARADE

On this week's mini-episode, Katy captures the unique and festive sounds of a parade that is passing through her town. And she explains why she sometimes gets choked up when she attends a parade. She also wonders about the origins of the word "parade," and if it ever meant something different from the gleeful file of marching bands, floats, and military regiments that it has come to signify today. Lastly, Katy tells you where you can see both the longest and the shortest parades in the world. -------------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.
