Red Sox Parade

That's right! Sox did it again. Twice in four years, I could get used to this.
I went to the Victory Parade in Boston for the Red Sox. It was a beautiful day, bright clear and sunny. I arrived with my brother-in-law and his daughter as well as a couple of her friends, early in the day, about 8:30am and we stopped off at Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market.

On our way we came across the facilities brought in for the event.

Thats my B-I-L ^^^^^^




This is Andrea - I promised to blog this, so here it is. We had a great time at the parade with you and your friend Tara

This is Tara.

And oh yes, the parade.
After waiting about 5 hours standing on the edge of City Hall Ave. The Sox finally came in to view. They also stopped about 100 yards ahead of us to speak to the crown and have John Papelbon dance his jig for the crowd. From where we were standing, we could not see any of it.

I should have stayed home, I would have seen more of the parade and my legs would not be hurting so much from standing endlessly.

But, I guess it was worth it. It was exciting to be in that atmosphere of jubilation.

Here a some pics from the parade.

This is the Series MVP 3rd baseman, Mike Lowell


Yes, the Yankees still suck.






Finally, I want to leave my sentiments for the last few years of enjoyment the team has brought Red Sox Nation and myself.
