Overview

Hype:

Luminaria is an enchanting walk through Ashton Gardens that transports you to another world with all of the sights, smells, sounds, and tastes of the holidays. A one-way path guides you past millions of twinkling lights in 28 themed areas and the iconic luminaire hill – a light and music show on 6,500 programmable luminaries. Each luminary is a pixel in a moving picture of flying reindeer, illuminating snowflakes, and other signs of the season. Songs and shows will be even better with the iconic 120-foot tree (already on top of a 40-foot hill!) incorporated into the show. With new lights, new sections, new packages, and more throughout the experience, your Luminaria tradition will feel a little bit cooler this year.

Story

We met up with my parents and Ondy's family at 7:00 at Luminaria. There was some light snow for the second half of the evening and it was awesome. Everyone had a great time but towards the end (we finished at 9:00), the kids were tired and ready for bed.
