WW: Sea Witch Festival Parade Balloons

Seahorse Parade Balloon

Halloween Parade Balloons

"Men say that in this midnight hour,
The disembodied have power
To wander as it liketh them,
By wizard oak and fairy stream."
- William Motherwell

Last weekend I took a broom ride to Rehoboth Beach's Sea Witch Festival parade for the first time ever. I've seen the sea witch balloon mascot in ads for years, but didn't realize there were so many other billowing balloons in the procession! The seahorse balloon was my favorite, but I couldn't resist tying the three Halloween balloons together into an animated gif.
