Merry Krishnas

I heard some sort of commotion out on the street on Saturday, so went down to check it out. The Hare Krishnas were having their parade down Yonge Street. I'd seen this in Vancouver and it was the same here. There were three huge, brightly-painted carts, decorated with flowers. Each had a huge tent-like thing above the cart attached to some sort of pole. As the cart moved down the street, the pole moved slowly up and down, extending the awning (or tent or whatever you want to call it) high into the air and then collapsing it. The carts had two large ropes, which the followers, out in front, used to pull the carts through the streets.
