Hundreds of thousands watch Vancouver gay parade

Rainbows, water balloons and gay rights were front and centre Sunday at the 29th annual Vancouver Pride Parade as an estimated 385,000 people watched the spectacle dance down streets in the city's densely populated West End.

Spectators sat or stood row upon row along the sidewalk to glimpse such parade entries as Dykes on Bikes, with women in leather, tutus and bikini tops gunning their engines.
