Don't know if you've gone to this before, but just wanted to note that the parade is usually just a small group of musicians and dancers in Mardi Gras style costumes making their way down the Main Street. It's fun to see but just takes a few minutes to move past. What we enjoy as much are all the local crafts people and food vendors that set up tables a long the street for several blocks. There are often some fun foods to try, special drinks, local artwork and items like home made soaps. In the past, a local band might set up in the area by the lolos to play music, too. I'd agree that the lolos can be a good place to eat that night, but they will likely be busy. It's a fun evening and lots of local residents turn out so there's a real festive air. We're making our trip to the island earlier this year so are sad we'll be leaving before the event starts.
