In what felt like the hottest day of the year,
Sunday's procession makes its way down 18th Avenue |
 |
Adorable ruginettas Rose, Luciana and Lucille with proud nonna Lucy Spata
|
 |
Mario D'Amico sang our favorite festival songs,
including a glorious rendition of Ave Maria
|
 |
Halfway through the procession, we cooled off outside
Villabate Alba Pasticceria and Bakery
|
 |
Literally one of the best arancini I've had in awhile
|
 |
It's not a Sicilian Feast unless you have a least one cannoli
|
 |
After our break, the parade continued towards Santa Rosalia Church
|
 |
After Mass, Santa Rosalia was taken back to her chapel on 18th Avenue

A look inside beautiful Santa Rosalia Church (6301 14th Ave.)

I took a brief tour of the church to admire some of the artwork,
including this wonderful statue of Santa Rosalia |
