Glow-a-rama and Cool Globes

During the week-end following Thanksgiving, my family &  I wandered into downtown Houston to view the first annual Night-time Art Car Parade, the Glow-a-Rama!   We arrived early enough for a good spot ... then learned we were on the wrong side of the road!  Quickly, we made a dash across the road with time to resettle before the Glow-a-rama parade begins.  It was such fun!

This wide-open mouth was an early crowd pleaser.

Other favorites included anything that shot up flames or tooted horns, especially when the driver slowed before our curbside spot along the route.

 

This Rooster was another top art car.

When the parade ended, we strolled through Discover Green Park, admiring the Cool Globes, a public art exhibit currently on display.
