“I would like to see the Rose Parade in person sometime. “
Ha. You have to camp overnight to do that. You’re sitting on lawn chairs or concrete for hours, it’s absolutely freezing. You aren’t going to get any sleep. The floats look smaller in person than on tv, at least to me. It kinda has a party atmosphere, if you threw a party on an ice flow.
If you’re not young & dumb you’d want to go the grandstand route. Not sure what that would cost but it would be the best way to see the parade in person.
That’s what I would do as a travel package. Haven’t checked prices.
