Caribana Toronto 2009 PhotosThis page is given over to Caribana Toronto 2009 parade photos. 2009 parade was held on a hot, sunny day, which makes all the difference to the photos.
Purple and red were popular colors and they certainly stand out from the usual Caribbean colours of green, gold and blue.
This sun disk shimmered with sparkles as it sashayed its way down the boulevard.

float makes a colorful backdrop and nicely links Canada with the Caribbean.
I've called this float the 'Lion King' but it may have nothing to do with Disney.
A very far eastern Indian feel to this float, maybe reflecting the many people from the sub-continent who call the Caribbean home nowadays.
A short while after the 'Lion King' float came this 'Scorpion King' one, movies are always a good source of ideas for floats.
This parade takes place in summer heat so swimsuit costumes are the order of the day. At the other extreme is the
Santa Claus Parade
where everyone is bundled up in snowsuits.

This float, surrounded by matching dancers, was one of the first to set out.
