parade

Thousands of troops and state personnel will take part in a military parade Tuesday to mark the anniversary, in keeping with other key dates in September in ideologically-aligned neighbours China and Vietnam.

On Thursday, a “Stranger Things” float appeared in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade.

Mr Osborne, himself a Liverpool fan, said he and his wife were watching the parade on television when they noticed the open-top parade bus carrying the Liverpool players picking up speed.

For many, the quietness felt intentional, almost like the parade understood the collective exhaustion of the moment.

It is also customary to attend parades with floats and live performances, such as the famed Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which is held annually in New York City.
