What Did You Do for Christmas?

Tweet

We don't have children and didn't have any travel plans (his family is in Japan, and mine is pretty far away), so we went out to dinner and then went to a local university that was doing a free drive-through light show on its very large campus. It was a very long wait in line to get in (about an hour), but it was free. This is one of the most beautiful university campuses I have ever seen, and its large, architecturally impressive buildings looked even prettier all decorated for the holidays. Apparently they had the largest and second-largest Christmas tree in the state. Also, there was a life-sized creche that was extremely impressive, featuring both camels and dromedaries (one-humped and two-humped camels) as well as many other animals and life-sized human figures (holy family, kings, shepherds). There may have been an angel, too, but there was a lot going on and we had to keep moving! I didn't think to take any pictures, but I used to tutor a student at this university, so I am including a nice picture I took to show you how pretty the place is.
