We have this lovely tradition here called the Parade of Lights, in which any boat owner that wills decorates his boat and joins the procession on the given night. My favorite yachtsman invested time and energy to create this bright spot on the water…
Now, don’t laugh. It’s not so easy to take pictures in the pitch dark of night—challenge enough to find the wee spot of light in the inky dark of the camera’s field of view…
Being a fair-weather sailor I opted to be the spectator for the parade (how else would we have these fabulous pictures anyway? ha,ha! ) And as our “Chase Me” sailed by and the strains of Celtic Christmas music and the laughter of hardier-friends-than-I carried across the water, I snapped some pics…
Here, behold the winner in the “Best Religious Theme” category. Fun. A category was found for each of the six entrants and all were winners! Now we shall have a free night in a local hotel to celebrate our upcoming 28th anniversary—thanks to the work of my brilliant skipper!
