Mini Italy

It's that time of year again - the festival of Saints Cosmas and Damian in our Italian neighborhood. Most of the streets shut down while people parade and celebrate for 2 days - it's always fun and exciting. The music is very much like the Godfather and there are lots of Italian flags. Our house gets blessed twice (from the front and the back) so we are covered each year.

This is one street over from our home - notice the Italian flag painted on the street
