The popular Nickelodeon cartoon now
has a balloon. This complex balloon has Tommy and Chuckie riding Spike the
Dog. They're sure to be a hit! Another new balloon last year was Blue from Blue's
Clues. She's all ready for the dance down Broadway. It takes a lot of work and effort to bring all this to us. Hats off to all
the Macy's volunteers!
Let's hear from another hard worker!
They must have been here early to get the front row. They'll have to get up even earlier to get a good spot on the parade route!
What does one boy have to say?
On the left
you see the chart that shows all the chambers which get filled. Sesame
Street's Big Bird should now be called Bigger Bird!
How much helium do they need for those balloons anyway?
Here's Cartoon Network's Dexter. Hopefully he'll be holding his breath
long enough to make it through the parade.
Rocky and Bullwinkle, is a classic parade balloon. Workers (not Boris and Natasha) have to
make sure they're tied down so they don't escape.
How do they
control them?
OK everyone, it's
time to go home and get some rest.
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is starting in a few hours!
