Walking with Trixie.

Marchando con Trixie.

Walking with Trixie.

Chronicle of the parade part 2

Before I go on with the chronicle, want to show you the photo with my lovely friend Trixie, who very kindly went to pick me to go together to the parada. Also the TVMex ribbon, it was her who asked me to use it.

And back to the chronicle, as I messaged Trixie to tell her our location, people started to move, and so it was like that that I gave the first steps as a participant of the LGBT parade.
And there among all nervousness and being looked by thousands of people (welll maybe not thousands right there, but along all the walk surely) my feet made me walk a new road.

First thing that spooked me was the amount of people going and coming, logical being that the starting point, surely some were looking for their friends like I was minutes before, the ones that decided to instead of looking just wait till they passed by, the ones running to be on time to go into the trucks, or what any other reason.
Second, the photos, and of course it was not like one could say No being that I was also taking lots of photos, or to avoid them. And like that, while taking a new photo or posing for another one the road was being walked.

At some point we stopped walking a bit, and my friend Trixie joined us, alon the way a few more girls arrived, and by then we were a good group.
After crossing Insurgentes street the group expanded , part of i being that there was noone walking behind us, probably a red light, so we were able to stop here and there for photos and the like. And to keep walking and enjoying.
A few blocks ahead, suddenly we had to stop, and stop for a long time, never knew why. But that was ok, since it allowed us to regroup, and also to take a little rest for the other half of the walk.

And I stop it here for today.
