I'm Canadian and celebrated Thanksgiving in October. However, I still love a good parade and cute balloon. So, here's some of my favourites from this years parade.

First, before we get to the balloons I have some honourable mentions...

Now, BALLOONS!!

Mario

A childhood classic. Who doesn't love Mario?

Dora the Explorer

I was obsessed with Dora as a kid. While this isn't the exact version of Dora that I grew up with, the nostalgic part of me still loves this balloon and the fact that she's still relevant to the current generation.

Snoopy

Of course, another childhood classic. I grew up watching the Thanksgiving and Christmas movies at school every year. I also continue to watch them now, because I finally found them on DVD.

Bluey

Not a childhood favourite, but definitely a current favourite. I love this show, and the balloon is adorable.

The Pillsbury Doughboy

Back to the classics. Grew up eating Pillsbury Halloween and Christmas cookies every year. Still eat them every year. Had to include him.

And last, but certainly not least. Not even close to least...

Minnie Mouse

I LOVE old Disney. Actually, I love almost anything Disney. But I really love the Fab 5, especially Mickey and Minnie. A childhood staple that stuck with me into adulthood. Pure happiness in the form of a cartoon animal.

I'm not sure why that picture is bigger than the others. They're all screenshots from my phone. But whatever, I guess.
