Scene in the City – and what a scene it was!

ZOMBIE WALK – downtown Vancouver

I’ve only heard about it before this.  Sometimes I feel like a zombie but Saturday was my very first Zombie experience as an observer only.

It began at the Vancouver Art Gallery and continued all the way down Robson Street towards Denman & then along Beach Ave.  What a nightmare!

Can you zip me up?

A zombie walk by definition is an organized public gathering of people who dress up in zombie (monster like) costumes.  And it’s not even Halloween.

Zombie walks have become relatively common in large cities, especially in North America, often becoming annual traditions.   Usually taking place in an urban center, the participants make their way around the city streets and through shopping malls to a public space (or a series of taverns in the case of a zombie pub crawl) in a somewhat orderly fashion.

These guys were weaving through traffic (which slowed down for the event) and scaring tourists on open tour buses.  What an unexpected surprise???

Somebody get me a bloody Mary!
