Raining on Everyone's Parade

Bbrrrrrr.... August? What August?
Luckily the persistent rain and October-style temperatures that have hit Amsterdam recently didn't stop the annual Gay Pride canal parade taking place yesterday. We arrived early and reserved ourselves a canal-side view on the Prinsengracht, but by the time the parade started to float by our fingers and toes were numb and we'd been soaked twice. The guys on the float didn't seem to mind though, and our patience was rewarded with the usual dose of toned torsos, waxed and tanned in preparation for the party.
