There were a few festivities before the parade to keep us entertained. J and I also noticed the green accessories and the number of people dressed inappropriately for the weather. We wore big heavy winter jackets and gloves and we were still cold. John forgot his headband to keep his head warm so he borrowed J's scarf.
Before and during the parade, there was also a pretty high police presence, probably to keep people from behaving inappropriately. A lot of paramedics from St. John's ambulance also walked the street. I have never seen paramedics patrolling before. Some of them were cadets and looked about 10. I don't know if I'd want them treating me...
