 |
| The fun starts at the junction of N 9th, Withers and Havemeyer Streets |
 |
| The Giglio Band played our favorite Neapolitan and Italian American songs |
 |
| Despite the threat of rain, revelers turned out in force for the celebration |
 |
| The giglio slowly dances its way through the throng |
 |
| With much fanfare, the boat sets sail down Havemeyer Street |
 |
| (Above and below) A good time was had by all |
 |
| It was great to see our friends Tony, Elmina and their delightful family |
 |
| The paranza (lifters) show tremendous strength and spirit |
 |
| (Above and below) During the "double lift" the giglio and boat meet in front of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church (275 N 8th St.) and pandemonium ensues |
 |
| Joey Aragona made a fantastic "Grand Turk" |
 |
| Our good friend Lieutenant Dom Varuzza (third from right) poses with family and friends between lifts |
 |
| Our pals Yoda and Michael show their support |
