A Jacksonville holiday mainstay is getting ready to make its way down the St. Johns River: the annual Light Boat Parade.
Boats of all sizes will light up the river again on Saturday night starting at 6 .m. Along with the boats, there will be a host of other events downtown that ends with fireworks show that some say is the best the city offers because of the fire waterfall that cascades off the downtown bridges.
“It’s one of the things you can do in Jacksonville where it’s a family affair. I mean, it’s everybody has a good time,” Brindle said. “When you’re on the boat, and you go in downtown, and you look down here, I mean people are 10 to 20 deep, just out there watching all these boats coming by and on my boat. My grandkids they like to get the bullhorn and yell back and forth with the people on the dock. And they’ll yell you say Merry, I’ll say Christmas.” Brindle said.
