Sunday’s 37th annual Dominican Day Parade in Manhattan was more fun than a barrel — or in this case, scooter-full — of monkeys.

One Dominican devotee turned his scooter into a one-man parade float for the ride up Sixth Avenue, complete with colorful skulls, stuffed monkeys and bears, and red, white and blue flags representing the Caribbean nation and the United States.

Thousands of other revelers turned the stretch from 35th Street to 56th Street into a merengue dancefest.

“This is so fun. I love it!” said Marlene de la Rosa, a New Jersey homemaker who has attended the parade for the past four years.
