Minnesota, U.S.A.: "It Looks Like the Rain Hasn't Dampened Their Spirits!" (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net) In November 2004, Minnesota Falun Gong practitioners participated for the second time in the University of Minnesota's Homecoming Parade. Last year, Falun Gong practitioners' float was placed almost at the end of the parade, but as a result of their outstanding performance last year, their float was placed far in front this year. Many parade staff members who passed by the Falun Dafa float could not help but praise it. During the parade, many spectators applauded the Falun Dafa float, and kept commenting, "Beautiful, beautiful." Though it rained during the parade, there were still many spectators. When passing the reviewing stand, the announcer saw the practitioners peacefully performing the exercises on the float and said, "It looks like the rain hasn't dampened their spirits!"
