Sons of Freedom Pajama Parade San Carlos | Mexico


The Sons of Freedom is a local motorcycle club that gets together at their clubhouse for socializing, as well as sponsoring various events in town, such as this parade, and gathering Christmas gifts for children in the area.


This Pajama Parade is held every January 1 in the morning,  people dress as if they had just gotten up after celebrating New Year's Eve and went right out for breakfast, which is what they did.  After breakfast, they parade through town, led by one of our police vehicles.


Unfortunately, it was a cold, partly overcast day for the parade this year.

 
Unfortunately, I did miss a few vehicles because it's a two lane road and there were cars in the lane closest to me.
 


In spite of the cool weather, people got out in open vehicles including these.



And in the back of pickups!

Pajama Parade | San Carlos | Sonora | Mexico

 
Everyone knows about pajama parties, right?  San Carlos has taken that concept a step further and plans a pajama parade on New Year's Day each year. 
 
 

This event is sponsored by the Sons of Freedom, a motorcycle club here in San Carlos.  Everyone meets at Delfine's, a popular restaurant.

 
Everyone is dressed in some version of what they consider their pajamas.
 
 
If you look at the left side of this next photo, you'll notice that we even had a police escort.  They blocked off the side streets for us also.
 

It was a bit chilly, but there were some people riding in the back of a pickup truck, as well as convertibles.

 

 
 

There were all types of vehicles, this Suburban I was riding in had been chopped a bit.


 

We arrived at Hammerhead's, another popular restaurant, for a while so people could refresh their drinks and socialize and then the crowd went to El Mar for breakfast and costume judging.

 

Obviously, San Carlos is a unique community!
