gorgeous except for the shoes....guess she needed to be comfortable
You dance the whole time and people will occasionally step on your foot so a flat closed toe shoe with a comfortable sole is necessary. Many people spay paint their shoes to match the costume. But heels or sandals are a no go for dancing down the road for hours on end.
 
In Toronto? I feel like Caribana here isn't what it used to be and this year was the coldest and rainiest one weather-wise we've had in years.
Yep. I planned to go to Toronto this year but plans got changed. I feel better missing it knowing it was cold and raining. For the past 3 years, I think, Cropover and Caribana have been the same time making people choose one over the other. Rihanna has definitely increased the interest in Cropover and more Americans are going; same with Trinidad. None of them are the same from what I remember when I was younger but they're still fun.

I would totally go to Cropover over Caribana. It literally hasn't been the same since it was sponsored by a bank and renamed and keeps getting renamed based on whoever the sponsor is. Years ago it was so lit, now it's an after thought to a lot of people. I'm dying to go to Trinidad one day.

If you get the opportunity to go to carnival in Trini definitely go. They're the originators so it's like none other...the level of party is insane and be prepared for no sleep. We booked a few days in Tobago to recover.
