Itinerary
Arrive Los Angeles
You are scheduled to participate in the 116th Rose parade. This
year's parade theme is "Celebrate Family," will take
place on Saturday, January 1, 2005 at 8 AM (PST), and features
majestic floral floats, high-stepping equestrian units and spirited
marching bands from across the nation. The tournament boasts flowers,
music, and pageantry unmatched throughout the world. MARRIOTT
HOTEL
Los Angeles
This morning travel to Pasadena and visit the float construction
barns to observe these enormous floats as they receive their finishing
touches. Every inch of the floats must be covered with flowers or
other natural materials, such as bark or seeds. The Rose Parade's
elaborate floats have come a long way since the Tournament's early
days. Today, float construction is a multi-million dollar business.
Although a few floats are still handcrafted solely by volunteers,
most are built by professional float building companies. Later today,
return to Los Angeles for a tour of the sights. Hollywood, Beverly
Hills, and Sunset Boulevard are included as your day of sightseeing
comes to a close. MARINA DEL REY MARRIOTT HOTEL
| Pasadena |
|
| Happy New Year! Today you will
return to Pasadena for the grand celebration of floats and flowers.
Computerized animation has had an enormous impact on Rose Parade
floats. Recently, they have featured working roller coasters,
a 50-foot replica of the Statue of Liberty, a robotic chef with
moving arms, a working water slide and more-all controlled by
computers. But throughout all these changes, the Rose Parade
has remained true to its floral beginnings, and each float is
decorated with more flowers than the average florist will use
in five years. After the parade, transfer to the Farmer's Market
and the Grove, an immense open-air shopping district. A boxed
lunch is included today. MARINA DEL REY MARRIOTT HOTEL
