Imagine the Northwest Asian Weekly’s newspaper fashion contest models soaked in rain during the Seafair Chinatown Parade, and the audience treating us like a laughing stock. It could have happened to us if it rained.

Thank God that the weather forecast was predicted incorrectly yet again. The sun emerged late at 6 p.m. The parade started promptly at 7 p.m.

Fortune smiled on the International District for two consecutive Sundays with great weather for Dragon Fest last week and the Chinatown Seafair Parade this week. (end)

    If people would like to teach them about air travel, aerodynamics, or machinery, then this iss something that will actually glow their attention. This
    year, experts are predicting that dolls based on the boy band,
    One Direction will sell incredibly well. In standard, the smaller a great RC
    carr is normally,the more expensive it will be, as well.
