Christmas in the City

 

Last night we took the boys into the city to look at the Christmas Lights.

 

 
The vintage carousel was ablaze and packed with excited kidlets.
 
 
We feasted on gelato from Via Dolce.
 
 
And immersed ourselves in the glow of more than a million fairy lights from the world's largest LED christmas light display. It was magical for the adults but it was ten times more magical for the kids.
 
In the spirit of Christmas, all the money raised goes to SIDS and Kids ACT. My hat goes off to David Richards, SIDS and Kids ACT and the small army of lighting architects, engineers, designers and volunteers that made it happen. They've done an astounding job!
 

 

This is what makes Christmas so wonderful for me...community, family, the spirit of giving, everything that is colourful and joyful and bright.

 

And let's face it...

 

....you can never have too many twinkle lights!
