(A tad unnecessary the lights are on red, huh?)
Also please note the people sitting on top... I would not be that brave..
Let me explain first:
Australia had bids and Perth won upon a story for The Giants of Nantes, France.
There is a little girl ... she looks for her Uncle. He searches for her and came as Diver by the Ocean.
They meet finally. But here is the Search. In the Streets of Perth!
I went to BIG W after one tough day standing at The Giants (Ingo worked as (only European) volunteer)
...and - after checking - got myself a kid´s camping-chair, Perth 2015, that was. THE EVENT!
Kid´s one is easier to transport and ...see title, so ...yes, dear Erika, I - darn it - am that small I fit into such a chair.

November 30th, 2013, our wedding day.
I even cared for high heels and Ingo still has to bend down.
I wanted to share but the other woman... preferred the sidewalk (didn´t fit) and it was DRAMA.
See.. it was HOT! And the two of us (she was a retired English-teacher) waited for hours.
She´s also an "Adrenaline Junkie", as you can read on her T-Shirt.
The Giant Diver did NOT fit around the corner!!! ... they sat him down... in a big(ger) chair.
Later I gave the chair to fH´s 7-year old Son mL. Nothing goes to waste. He is MUCH taller than me now, no idea what became of that chair.
Here is Ingo´s Baby:
Can you believe... over 10 years now ago!!! March 2015!!!!
And yes. I waited so long I was in first row...
Et oui, je comprends tout ca…
La position de ma tête .... "kaputt"...
Henry 🦁 was in icky-cold Braunschweig!
Imagine it: Fullest trains and I have a chair with me...
I was not that crammed, I fit.
But as I watch so many cats online - can´t have one here - heart too big for the trouble when they have to "go" and all the travel...
Well, this came to my mind at once upon Erika´s question! ... If I Fits I Sits.

Yahoooo0000000
Gigantic :-)
And I did!!!
Such memories, Iris.
Reminded by fellow bloggers, RedPat! :-)
Well, it’s great you fit in a kid’s chair and then gave it to a kid. lol.
Looks like a fun parade, dont' think i'd be sitting that high either but I love your heels.
Great memories and photos. What a great time yo had.
Dear friend Iris, I love the cat illustration "If I fits I sits" LOL! Beautiful photos, parade, you, Ingo, what great memories! Hugs to you. :)
Hurrah for still fitting in the chair. I can sit in most kids chairs, but some are just too short. Ha ha, too short. Seeing I'm short, but I don't know if I could get up if the chair was close to the ground. Thanks for answering my question, and thanks for sharing these giants! Hope it was a good day. hugs-Erika
I haven't seen the diver before only the little girl. Thank you. I can still fit in some kids chairs, but prefer an adult chair because of my weight, I don't want to break a small chair and land on my tailbone. I bought a camping chair once and sat it in while I waited at the bus stop and the driver laughed, telling me the bus already has plenty of seats I don't need to bring my own. I needed the chair to take to a family gathering in Botanic Gardens.
I love the Giants especially the Deep Sea Diver. I've seen YouTube videos of both the Diver and the Little Giant Girl. How cool that Ingo was one of the handlers.
Memories are so cool.
Well said!
I think I still have those shoes!
I am VERY thankful!
Dear friend Linda, it was a wonderful time indeed, I am aware how lucky I am, and thankful for sure! Hugs, to a good life!
Yes, it´s work to get up from "down there"!!! LOL. As FIL says, get old or die, so, yes, I prefer getting old and fight my way up! Hugs and to good days!
I just saw a cat video (of course) and that cat broke a chair indeed! I still have IKEA´s Emil (kid´s chair) - Ingo still uses it. So don´t you worry about breaking chairs ;-)
You sure have me laughing here.
Bus drivers are so cute! Once in Perth I had to ask when to hop off and the driver sang a song to me on the way. Another time... when we meet in Person again I think we can share bus-driver-stories!
Thanks to Facebook!!!! FB told me they need volunteers and since I am small I told Ingo.... that´s how it "rolled". (A bit scary FB knows so much but, ... in this case: good!)
I yes, I hope I never suffer Alzheimer´s or such!
The giants are so cool! And you are soooo tiny! Love the wedding day photo.
Tiny... Wish I was tall! Next life!
