Trail Of Lights

Through December and with Christmas fast approaching we have been making the most of what Austin has to offer...one thing which sprung out at us as fun and different was the Trail of Lights.

"The Trail of Lights is the best place to ignite your imagination. Immerse yourself in over 2 million whimsical lights illuminating dozens of favorite characters and icons" http://austintrailoflights.org/

It's free to attend Mon-Thurs and $3 each Fri-Sat, we had been advised to purchase the zip fast passes to enter early before the crowds which was completely worth the money. The girls were enthralled at the sights we encountered plus there were over 30 food trucks serving hot dogs, donuts, hot chocolate, cider etc it reminded me of a smaller version of Winter Wonderland held at Hyde Park in London.

The Trail of Lights centerpiece is the famous Zilker tree...it still remains the tallest freestanding, man-made holiday tree. Plus children can visit Santa's workshop, 'Candy-land' and enjoy performances from some local bands.
