Hildago Festival of Lights
We sure enjoyied our tour of the lights , the dinner and entertainment Thursday the 10th. It was quite cold and some of us (the smart ones) wore our long underwear and Winter coats, so we were pretty warm. We had a covered trolley but no windows panes. There are a few trolleys with glass windows and also a horse drawn one.
Every year the City of Hildago presents it's annual Festival of Lights there are sponsors who sponsor certain huge magnificant light displays, from Dec. 3rd to after New Years The tours with Dinner and trolley ride and entertainment are the 3rd thru the 16th, I believe. Our dinner was very good, the entertainment great and of course the displays all over town were so gorgeous, pictures don't do them justice but I have these 2 slide shows so you can view them and see some of what we saw. The entertainment for the night we went was a Frank Sinatra impersonator from Vegas and a large group of children from deep in Mexico, who sang many xmas songs in Spanish and had us sing along. Also they sang some beautiful other songs.
Across the street from where we ate and where the entertainment was and many wonderful light displays, are 3 huge beautiful homes owned by the Ayala family. all of which are some of the most brilliant displays in the City. Ramon Ayala, is well known in Mexico and U.S. and his band the bravos del Norte are very well known and have won numerous Latin and American Grammy Awards! also there are 3 live reindeer to view in pens near where we boarded the trolley, all this for $8.00 per person for all.
Dont know who that Eskimo looking chick is in the black coat but she was very warm while alot of other folks were shivering! That picture is in the first slideshow....hope you enjoy the slode shows.
