Video Postcards from EuroPride Zurich 2009!

Story and videos by Dennis Hensley

Regular Out Traveler columnist Dennis Hensley just got back from EuroPride 2009 in Zurich and sent us two typically hilarious -- yet very informative! -- video postcards from his trip.

Some 50,000 reportedly attended this weekend's Europride festival in "the little big city" of Zurich, Switzerland. OutTraveler's Dennis Hensley and his handy Flipvideo camera were there among the throng. In part one of his two-part video postcard, he meets Zurich's openly lesbian mayor, Corine Mauch, learns the difference between Mr. Switzerland and Mr. Gay Switzerland and chats up U.S. porn stud Johnny Hazzard on the "best night of his life."

In Part 2 of his video postcard from Zurich, Dennis Hensley pokes around the float prepping area, discovers his inner Showgirl, and floats a provocative theory about Euro-boys and their "nifty black jacket" obsession.
