I have been accidentally caught in the Dream Cruise several times over the years while actually trying to get somewhere and being totally unaware of which weekend in August it was. This marks the first time I actually went there — on purpose.

I was only there for about an hour and a half and have posted the highlights of my photography @ flickr. It was a real exhibition of sorts, and I can honestly say that this was the first time people have gravitated to my giant lenses instead of recoiling in horror, haha. For some reason there seems to be a disturbing trend of people riding mini-bikes or dangling puppets from their windows whilst cruising...wtf. One guy was on a mini-bike AND on a cell phone, calling someone and telling them, "Guess what? You'll never believe it, I'm IN the Dream Cruise." Not sure if he mentioned that he was on a miki-bike...

Anyway, it turned out to be pretty fun, especially seeing everyone have such a good time. To check out the photos, go here.
