Blessing of the Fleet



So, there's this really cool event that happens every New Year's Day down in the Florida Keys, and it's called the Blessing of the Fleet. For this, all the ships that want to participate line up and parade by a bridge, as a priest or pastor prays over them, for safety and well-being for the new year. This tradition had actually died out until it was revived a few years ago, and the strong showing this year makes me think it will be around for years to come.

And here's a cool picture of the sky melting into the water, taken for an airplane. Just for fun.
