Easter Parade and Easter Bonnet Festival, New York 2016

For the third year in a row I spend Easter Sunday on Fifth Avenue. This annual tradition has been taking place in New York City for over 100 years. This parade doesn't have any floats or marching bands. From around the world people come to New York City to participate. Outfits range from elegant to outrageous.   A 15th-century proverb from Poor Robin's Almanack, an English 17th and 18th-century satirical almanac series,  states that if on Easter Sunday some part of one's outfit is not new, one will not enjoy good luck during the year, "At Easter let your clothes be new, or else be sure you will it rue."
 Here in my old post  you can find some facts about the history of the parade and pictures of 2014.
 And here I published  2015 pictures .
And now enjoy the pictures of 2016!

  1. The topic is something that anyone who has ever faced the difficulty of letting go of the past can relate to. One of the main functions of the professional counselor is to support the clients in milking such hard situations for their own. Through being empathetic, insightful, and using the tools provided by the psychotherapy, counseling assists in creating the environment for the healing process to happen significantly. The process of trust is being built; therefore, the majority of people realize that they have gained a new kind of self-awareness, relief from negative feelings, and a better sense of being, which together make it possible for them to not only feel better but also to be more open to the future.
