Day 272 – Celebrazione!

Today for my intention I decided to take part in the 60^th Annual Festa Italiana, which is a celebration of Italian culture at a local park in my area. I met up with my mom and her visiting friend, Dolly. We went to Starbucks for a nice warm coffee on what started out as a fairly brisk morning. With the sun shining bright, a light ocean breeze and the streets packed with people, we made our walk to Touro Park.

As we got closer, I could hear the buzz of people in the air and the authentic Italian live band playing. Upon entering the festivities we mingled amongst the people, took in the music and visited the vendor booths. There were kids climbing trees, getting their face painted, the smell of Italian food wafting throughout the area, kids and couples dancing and more. It was a great way to spend a portion of my afternoon.

Afterwards, we all walked down to the wharf, shopped a bit, and just enjoyed a marvelous day. And with that, I was able to make it home just in time to spend the second half of my day with Vinny and the kids. #Cheers #HappySaturday #HGAL #LifeisreallyaCelebrazione!!
