Fog..... and so was the event! The most un-organized Fiesta that I can remember! It's time to re-think the starting times for these events.With fog slowly enveloping the harbor, the Greasy Pole was interupted to run a seine boat race.Then the announcer had trouble keeping track of the grease walking contestants! I felt bad for those on the pole...it was cold! And being wet didn't help them.Perhaps someone on the platform with a walkie-takie would help! So as the time closed in on 8:00 pm I hauled anchor,before the winning walk! Even my nephew and his friend couldn't wait to get home!
Too bad about the fog --- but thanks for your great pictures. It has been very loud on my street and people were still partying and "Viva!"-ing when I went to bed at 2am. It's quite now but just wait till Mass is over!
