Christmas Lights Tour

Tonight was a wonderful night. We took in the Edmonton Transit Christmas Lights Tour. You ride on a bus to a few spots in the city and it gives you a chance to enjoy some of the Christmas Lights around the city.
It takes us down Candy Cane Lane ( I will have to go back and get some nicer shots) We went down to our Legislature grounds which are always lit us so nice. The tour stops here for about 25 minutes which allowed me the oppurtunity to get some relly nice shots. This is the front of our Provincial Capitol Building There is a large Christmas tree, I was standing next to it when I took this shot.
The cost is only $3.00 and the money goes towards the Donate a Ride Program
There was a choir singing inside and they had Christmas music playing outside
I even won a prize while on the bus
It really was a great night
