Pistahan Parade 1: Dancing in the Streets



Pistahan, the 20-year old San Francisco weekend party celebrating all things Filipino, started with a parade on Saturday from Civic Center down Market Street to Yerba Buena Gardens.



Every other group in the parade seemed to be dancing and singing...



...bringing a welcome dose of good energy to the usually grimy corner of Grove and Market.



The Westlake School for the Performing Arts contingent was one of the more delightful groups...



...singing a song about going to the beach and jumping to the sky...



...while a dozen kids of every size...



...performed a choreographed routine that was infectiously fun.



Even the Kaiser Hospital nurses were doing an aerobics dance routine...



...as an instructor on the back of a float led them through their paces.
