Belmopan's Pride of Place
posted (September 22, 2009)

Earlier we told you that for the first time in memory, the 21st. September parade in Belize City had to be cancelled due to heavy rain and flooded streets. And while the old low-lying capital was inundated – in the new capital the sun was shining – and Belmopan was eager to demonstrate what the Prime Minister called, its “pride of place” as the host city for this year’s official ceremonies.

The parade was choc full of floats and even featured a dancing minister! More than that, it lasted for 50 minutes! We leave you this evening with highlights of the parade.
