Lights - Part 2

Last Friday we took Carter to the Downtown Illumination. It reminded me a little bit of New Year's - there was a big crowd all huddled together, there was a man on a microphone somewhere far away that we couldn't see who started the countdown, then when we all reached "1" all these lights turned on. It was neat, and a good city tradition, but like New Year's, a lot of hype for one quick second of celebration. Still, I am glad we went and we plan to return next year too.

I tried to get a few pictures, but I didn't have the best lens on my camera for the event so these will have to do.

All of the downtown buildings are trimmed in lights - this picture doesn't do it justice. You can click here to see a better picture.


There were reindeer covered in lights scattered all around.



We heard that there is only one Rudolph and his location changes every year and you have to find it. When the lights turned on, Rudolph was right in front of us.



There are more unsteady light pictures (as promised) in the December album.
