It is still Saturday, June 9, After a 15 minute break from this morning,we boarded the bus again for a trip to Artist Circle. There is a big parade today at noon.This parade is like NO OTHER!! It is all Art Work!!These people,adults and kids made all the costumes and stilts to walk on and made the floats too. It is hard to describe, everyone at camp said.. "You Gotta See It!" As pictured above each division is lead by a Rainbow of Balloons. The program books listed each color and the names of each one in that division.A local lady in front of me gave me the details of each entry..Thanks for the Program Too!

  What Really Impressed me was the first entries were people in Electric Wheelchairs with the artwork around them and mounted on their chairs. Also there was also a Flag Wheel Drill Team that went thru the motions. There were many small bongo and drums in each division too. Also many people were on  Stilts too in exotic dress. You have to see the pictures, I can't describe what I just saw for 2 hours of the most colorful and artsy parade ever! There were at least 8 divisions with 10 entries in each.

Then after the parade they had food vendors and also crafts for the Family.The US Marines performed with their Band too. This event attracts 70,000 people  each year..2nd Saturday in June each year.
Now see the pictures!! I did take over 800 shots but here are just afraction....

  Here it is Friday, June 8th, We walked one block to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. This is a large ultra-modern museum made of glass and looks like a  Giant Pyramid. We walk inside and buy our tickets($22.00/each) for a 5 hour tour. There is so much to see with all the rooms of different Rock & Roll Bands.  
        OOPS..The sign says no video,pictures, or cell phone shots allowed. There were security everywhere. So I had to look and not snap..snap.. You have to see the inside for yourself. But I can tell you ..it was well worth the day's visit. From Elvis,  Beattles, Michael Jackson, and heavy Metal Bands. Clothing, notes, guitars, videos and alot to see about your favorite Band! See the outside pictures, We did see Johhny Cash's Touring Bus on the outside lot. https://picasaweb.google.com/AirstreamHobo/RockRollHallOfFame#

   Also on Thursday, June 7th, We saw airstreamers getting off a small airplane. We ask them whats up? They told us the plane service will take 3 people up for a 1/2 hour plane ride over Cleveland for only $99.00. Wow.. Don McKelvay suggested that the 3 of us go up. We signed up for a 1PM flight. So at 1pm we left the runway for 3 circles of the Cleveland sky. We saw alot that we saw this morning from the trolley, it's just from the air now. The stadiums were small from the air. Also the Lake seemed to stretch over the horizon. Mom and I sat in the back seat? We couldn't even find the seat belts without digging under our Butts!!! We laughed so hard but we found them, it sure was a tight squeeze for us!! Enjoy the pictures

She is also assisted by her husband Tom. The first tour we sign up for is the "Lolly Trolley"  tour. We load up for a 2 1/2 hour tour of the city of Cleveland. The trolley driver/tour guide sure knew her information. The Trolley was Full. We drove all over the city... see the photos.. https://picasaweb.google.com/AirstreamHobo/ClevelandTrolleyTour#

Then we had Dinner Buffet on a Local Cruise ship. We left at 6pm and boarded and left the dock at 6:30 for a cruise through the river following downtown Cleveland. We went under numerous draw bridges and saw plenty of waterfront sights. Then we turned around and headed back the river to the Lake Erie for a sunset watch on the lake. All the while we enjoy a great buffet onboard. We then headed for the Sun... What a view of the Sun and also the waterfront of Cleveland. See Photos....

June 6th, 2012, We are parked on the airport parking lot. No hookups, but we have the water tanks full and the generator on standby. You can see the city skyline above our airstreams. We are only 4 blocks from downtown but we are next to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. I have arrived only an hour when I was asked to help with parking because the parkers needed a lunch break. I guess they heard I have parked rigs at other Rallys.
   We spent the day doing meet and greet the other Airstreamers as they arrived. Nice to see many from Alumapalooza come here too. We had a Happy Hour (as usual), then retired for the night..Big Week Planned ahead!!   God Bless AirstreamHobo & Mom

 Here we are in front of the Airstream Plant for one last photo...... on Sunday...

 I had to stop and inspect the Vintage Airstreams in front of the office.... cool rigs...
