Frog and mayor

Frog leads parade

A big frog led a parade around the Frog Pond today during the city's Halloween pumpkin festival, which featured floating pumpkins, giant bubbles, kettle corn and a chance to go down a slide while dressed as a princess.

And Tom Menino was there, making his last Halloween appearance on the Common as mayor. He moved slowly through a dense knot of people as parents brought their kids up to meet him. He greeted and posed with every one of them:

Pumpkins floated serenely along the edges of the pond:

Anyone get any pictures of the pumpkins representing various Boston area cultural institutions? I understand there were pumpkins representing the Red Sox, Franklin Park Zoo, and maybe the MFA?
