Take a break from the rigors of this Thanksgiving weekend to take part in a newer New York tradition: the third annual New York Lighted Boat Parade.

The parade will be doubling back under the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges, giving spectators along Brooklyn Bridge Park’s shoreline some of the best views. There are also tickets still available on some of the participating vessels, so there’s an opportunity to become a part of the tradition. (via Brooklyn Based)
