City Sidewalks

These busy sidewalks dressed in holiday style are in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah.

I had heard of the Christmas light show in the city center, but had envisioned a few lit trees. I was certainly in for a surprise.

We first spent an hour or two peeking into shops and grabbing a bite in this comfort food mecca before shivering off the calories in the below freezing temperatures.

Seeing the lights is a bit of a winter sport here, and families come out in droves. There's a big city energy in the night streets of this pretty urban center, but the vibe is all friendly town. We grabbed a horse drawn carriage for a spin around the square. Between the hot chocolate available on the street corner, and the blankets provided to take off the chill, we were almost cozy!

There was a spectacular shot no matter which direction I pointed, so I soon put my camera away. After a brief time without gloves I couldn't feel my camera anymore anyway!

I hope you're hearing silver bells!

Ciao! for  now!
