My friend Olivier Jamin Changeart and his partner Fréd-éric Nicol are two of the three silver aliens who keep appearing in the video above.

Olivier was so quick that when he posted this great video of all the fun from last Thursday during Provincetown’s Carnival Parade I couldn’t resist asking if I could swipe this and share it with you.

Have you never visited Provincetown for Carnival?  Next year’s theme of Viva Las Vegas is sure to be enticing.  2013 Carnival Week will run from August 18th – 24th. Book your rooms / house now.

I leave for Provincetown later today on the afternoon high speed ferry and with any luck I’ll be sipping a cocktail at the Boatslip Tea Dance this afternoon.  I will be posting photos from Ptown’s Carnival Week celebration which actually started this past Saturday.

In the interim, I thought I’d share some pictures from Carnival 2011.

Last year’s theme “Can’t Stop the Music” was a lot of fun. I’ll be sure to share with you the crazy costumes from this year’s parade which takes place tomorrow (Thursday) once I return home.

While the bears have invaded Provincetown this week, last week saw tens of thousands of club kids in Ptown.  Here are a few of the many images from last week.  As you can see it was hot and sunny making for a great week and a lot of fun.

Parties in Provincetown start early. The first photo to the left shows what the Boatslip looked like by 12pm as many flock here to relax beside  Provincetown Harbor while listening to music, sipping cocktails and socializing with friends.

Temperatures soared into the low and mid 90s most of the week making Provincetown an ideal location.  A steady ocean breeze helped to keep everyone cool, but even still shirts remained optional for most.

Of course the Hat Sisters – Boston icons in the gay scene – did not disappoint with their one of a kind hats designed for each public appearance.
