2008, St. Patrick Day Parade, San Francisco
|
The Irish flag
|
Bushmills Irish Pipers
|
Cal Fire bagpipe players pose for a photo
|
Mayor Newsom's car awaits the Mayor's arrival
|
A forest of flags stand by to be carried
|
The parade makes ready on First Street
|
A drummer with a strong swing
|
Two players enjoy a quick chat
|
A banner is made ready for the parade
|
A well dressed child is lead to the parade
|
A small dog all done up for the event
|
TV 20 was there in their green truck
|
The Brosnan School of Irish Dance
|
A quick salute in rehearsal
|
Young girls wait for the parade to start
|
Religious mother nags royal father
|
Good weather for dancing in the streets
|
Mother ties shoes helping kids to get ready
|
About to play a flute wearing a funny hat
|
Shamrocks on face of the Saxophone player
|
Some on the sidewalk hit the grog
|
Cheer leader
|
Cheer leader
|
Two kids huddle to watch the crowds
|
Few things can match a red suit and a beer
|
Ah, to listen to fine Irish music
|
Peering over an oft repainted board
|
Festively bedecked atop a double decker bus
|
A leprechaun found hiding among yellow flowers
|
For some, the perfect banner
|
Wacko and yellow they played
|
Nothing is so much fun as two tubas
|
The ILWU
|
And the parade disappears down Market Street
