Summer weekends in the North End are home to tourists, lazy afternoons taking in views of the city from your roof deck, and the multitude of festivals/parades that occupy the neighborhood’s streets. We were hanging out inside and heard the tell-tale drone of the brass and thumping of the drums. Somehow we have missed the other parades and were determined to listen to the music and snap a few photos.

Click on the image below, then hover over the left or right portion of the enlarged image to advance or move backward, to check out a few photographs of the parade (7 images total).
