One person wore a kid's life ring, the sort found in swimming pools. Clearly, the month's long rainy season, that had just ended, made an impression on this person. Better safe than sorry.

Hat Backward

An uninspired costume was a baseball-style hat worn backwards. The addition of eyes on the back of the hat turned it into a good costume.
