Thousands Celebrate Berlin's Gay Pride Parade
Monday, June 21, 2010 1:00:08 PM

(Berlin) Tens of thousands of gays, lesbians and other revelers marched and danced in downtown Berlin for the German capital’s annual gay pride celebration, which features a colorful parade through the heart of the city.

Under the motto “Normal is different,” an estimated 250,000 people lined the route for the Christopher Street Day parade Saturday, as some 50 floats carrying dancers wove through the city streets.

Christopher Street Day commemorates the start of the gay rights movement in New York’s Greenwich Village in 1969 and the parade generally draws large crowds in Berlin, which has a history as a gay metropolis going back as far as the 19th century.
