Today is Summer Solstice 2010 – First day of summer officially. And today is 2010 Lakers NBA Championship Parade. If you don't know, LA Lakers won the NBA Finals on Thursday night, beating the Boston Celtics 83-79. Thousands of fans are expected in downtown Los Angeles on the celebrations.

Official victory parade begins at 11am PST expecting up to 2 million fans on the two blocks of South Figueroa Street. Live coverage begins on CBS 2 and KCAL 9 at 10 a.m. Watch Lakers Parade 2010 Live coverage on CBS 2 and KCAL 9.

Official route is from the Staples Center, traveling south on Figueroa Street to Jefferson Boulevard, where the parade turns east to end at the Galen Center. It’s the team’s 16th championship title.  I work down the street and it is amazing how many people were already lined up on Fig at 6:00 when i arrived.  I attended the parade last year but today i will just watch simulcast.  I will go to the Sparks parade however!
