Hildago, a town not far from us has a festival of lights each year. This year, six of us drove over to view the lights --- three photographers and three not. The first stop is at the city hall.
This is a house across of the city hall. Three houses get right into the Christmas spirit.

Estudiantina Guadalupana entertained the crowd. This is a group of 25 junior and high school boys from Mexico. The group had its origins in the 16th century in Spain and the costumes are replicas of the original costumes.
Ed had a lot of fun taking photos of the Ferris Wheel.
The three "boys" decided to go on the Ferris Wheel and take photos from the top. The ride attendant was very nice and put them on seat 8, which stops at the top for a while; then he let me go around a second time. Guess they don't get a lot of "gray hairs" with cameras on their rides and decided to treat them well.
John and Bob.
Looking straight down.
2nd stop was at an Ice Rink .... yup an open air ice rink. A number of people were skating and a Zamboni was driving around smoothing the ice.
Even the fire department gets into the act.
Many lights were found on a marked route.
A time lapsed photo got all of the positions of Santa's hat.
