Labor Day Caribbean Carnival
This is an important day for them to remember. You'll see all the beautiful floats, with sexy costumes, people playing calypso music (Soca Music). About 2 million people participate in this celebration. Lots of spectators, and tourists enjoy looking at the parade. Great spicy foods and cool drinks, vendors selling on the side walks, and in front of their homes.
I love Labor Day because this is the time when people get a chance to make cultural outfits & jewelry to sell to the Caribbean spectators. Most of them like to wear their country outfits and jewelry.
This day brings people together to enjoy themselves, dance, jump up and have lots of fun.
