The adult parade is the big kahuna of all activities. Flowers, feathers, sequins, ribbons and bows adorn the troupe members that march down the street. Creative talents are utilized by each troupe to achieve the cumulative effect of human art. Music transforms into a wondrous entity that takes possession of everyone within its immediate area. Once voluntary movements now become owned by the music.
Body parts begin to move and sway to the calypso sounds wafting through the streets.
The day ends with a fireworks display downtown along the waterfront. A barge containing the fireworks is taken into the harbor for the 9pm launch. Boats with eager viewers travel from all over to the area to anchor for the spectacle. For this brief time the island takes a rest from the adrenaline laden activities and everyone pauses for these few moments to take in the exploding colors. Thus ends the carnival.
