12/13, Friday evening. Annual Christmas boat parade. I don't know when it started. The night falls around 4:30pm nowadays. I walked by Lake Union's southern shore around 7:30pm. Saw a string of boats going by, brightly illuminated under semi cloudy sky. Not a lot of people here. The near full moon was visible at times. I took a bus going along Dexter. When it crossed the bridge over the canal in Fremont, the traffic ground to stop and go, maybe due to the spectators coming and going. Was very lively. Also a better view of the lit lake from the bridge.
