The sun rose on the 1st of January 2009 from approximately the direction of Gisborne (New Zealand), or, as the picture shows, Santiago (Chile) - which is in a southerly direction.

Crowds started gathering before midday in expectation of this year's annual 'Boobs on Bikes' parade. A New Zealand adult industry 'mogul' organises this event and is quite popular every year. This year the local mayor attempted to prevent it being run but was unsuccessful.

There was a protest against the 'Boobs on Bikes' parade by a group that felt that pornography is linked to sexual abuse. This young lady was protesting against that protest.

It was all very civil and the police went largely unnoticed (as far as I could tell).

A group of maybe a hundred protesters marched down Queen Street before the 'Boobs on Bikes' parade. The banner is self explanatory.

I didn't see anyone holding up a 'citation needed' sign...

A protester who is not a fan of pornography.

The organiser of the 'Boobs on Bikes' parade is a pornographer among other things. The parade is essentially a marketing stunt for his various 'gentleman's clubs', strip clubs, magazines, and his adult expo.

Policemen told the crowds to stick to the pavement (sidewalk for you yanks out there) and I didn't see any incidents of any kind myself, involving either the protesters or the bare breasted ladies that followed.

I understand though that there were a few 'drunken jeers' directed at the protesters, and also drinks containers, which I find sad and embarrassing.

It wasn't all about boobs. There were a few men and some drag queens as well.

The drag queens got the biggest cheers, despite being more clothed than their female colleagues.

Queen street was full of men, women, and indeed a few (accompanied and unaccompanied) children of all extractions. Mostly men unsurprisingly.

I found most fascinating the rows upon rows of camera phones beeping away. It was however difficult to get a shot that captured it well, and this is the best I got.

The parade may be called 'Boobs on Bikes' but this lady and others were riding atop vintage tanks. I couldn't get a decent shot of the tanks due to cops and crowds and the fear of being rolled over...

Another young lady that was atop a tank.

Mind you it wasn't a warm day and there was a breeze. Much respect.

Bus shelters, rubbish bins, benches, letterboxes, and of course roofs, windows and baloneys were prime locations for a view.
