The parade, which was led by Marshall and former legislator Alvera Maduro-Caines, was full of royalty with the many queens in the Virgin Islands as well as the US Virgin Islands gracing the parade with their smiles and waves.
Among those in the parade was Deputy Premier and Minister for Financial Services, Labour and Trade Hon Lorna G. Smith (AL) OBE, who donned festival costume to participate with Treasures troupe.
Hon Smith looked fit as a fiddle and would have been the envy of the not so young as she danced through the streets of Road Town.

A price will be paid for all that sex sex sex. When the Philipinos joined our festival for our 60th Tola cried out that they taking over and they were clean and very very beautiful and fully covered. We need to take an example from them. We chased them out of our parade cause we felt ashamed instead of learning.
These women getting pampers and silicones to shake for this parade
As a man it's very much distasteful for me
I prefer my natural ladies
START PARADE AT 10AM ANY TROUP NOT READY DONT PARTICIPATE. WE TOO LAX WITH DISCIPLINE. . GET SERIOUS. WE COME FROM OVERSEES TO SEE A DAY TIME PARADE.
In Trinidad y’all jump up straight for a week and here complaining bout a few hours.
All we need are rules and enforcement. That goes for immigration and festival and everything in between.
People know they are serious about starting time and so they straggle down after radio say parade start. It been that way for donkey years.
Now instead of worrying about start time you people should worry about QUALITY. If they put back the first judging station closer to government house, set and stick to a start time, take off points for incomplete troops at the first judges, allow no jumping in along the parade route, increase the prize money, you will see how quick the broken system will be fix.
