San Pedro Festival in Historical Malacca

Held on the 29th June 2000

This year, 2000, the Theseira Familia decided to add colour and a dash of good old elbow grease to the procession or float parade, which starts at the old Malacca Fort right into the heart of the Portuguese Settlement.

Theme chosen was "the sea",
featuring MerFolk towed by dolphins.

King Neptune=Jude, Merboy=Arnold, Mergirl=Olivia

the rest of the Theseira Folk closed up as FISH
(note the hats)

A big thanks to all hands on deck,
especially to Sonia Rouch and Cecil Theseira.
