Last weekend marked the forty-third anniversary of Toronto's annual Caribana parade. As reported by Torontoist, as many as 1.2 million people gathered along Lakeshore Boulevard for one of the city's most elaborate and well-attended street parties. 

"The parade was punctuated by elaborate floats—delicate fabric constructions built to resemble enormous, ornate dresses—each of which was pulled by a single person. Most were done up in bright, festive colours, presumably to celebrate Caribbean heritage and culture. One of them was done up in black, with a familiar winged, oval-shaped logo on top, presumably to celebrate Batman. Between the floats was the traditional sea of colourful costumes and colourful exposed skin."
