We couldn't ask for better weather on Saturday
|
The paranza carry the giglio past San Paolino's outdoor chapel
|
Danny Vecchiano and the Giglio Band performed
all our favorite patriotic and southern Italian folk songs
|
"Atlas," doing the work of three men
|
The giglio picked up a couple of extra passengers along the way
|
The capo gives the command to lift
|
The paranza worked like a well-oiled machine

Marching down Pacific Avenue

The celebration lasted well into the night
with a special midnight lift and fireworks show
