      You may have gotten the name of the band wrong. Thunderbirds had THE best costume sections.

    beautiful parade. the princess teens and queens well done ladies. i noticed though from the 9 girls in the miss teen only 4 were on parade. i also had an apportunity to view again the spectacular wear. the child in red won best spectacular wear think that was a costume not spectacular wear was impressed with the sensa think its the orion child and grammar school noticed alot of foreigners taking photos of the one in sensa. i think the participants of these shows should forfeit their prize when they fail to show up for parade.

    Great job in capturing the carnival Tuesday parade but I am disappointed. The only queen you did not get was Ameka Cognet, the 1st runner up.Why?

      For real. Next time, we need a full Chinese, Hatian, Spanish and any other ethnic group in DA to have their band……. more diversity, more flavour with full Da participation.
