Just wanted to let you know I've added some more photos on my flickr site. The first batch is from a fun trip to San Antonio a couple of weekends ago to meet Cici and her family and go see the Riverwalk Christmas lights. You may recall I did this last year too. Its becoming something of an annual tradition. Little Nina was especially cute this year, just like every year. We took in the lights from a river barge, so I didn't get to photograph many of the lights themselves (we were moving, the photos were blurry). But there's still some fun shots.
The second batch is from around town. Austin always bursts in colors in the spring when the wildflowers bloom, but apparently the drought, followed by early September rain, has brought us some amazing color in the late fall. Pear trees, plum trees, and various others that I don't recognize, have turned into brilliant shades of red and gold. All over town we can see these vivid colors.
Finally, there's some photos of this year's scaled down Austin Trail of Lights. The city nixed the gargantuan trail that has taken over Zilker Park the last few years in favor of this more modest version. They kept the famous Zilker Christmas Tree, pictured above, and a few of the exhibits from the old trail of lights. Had I never seen the old trail, I'd have thought this was just fine. My photos turned out a lot better this year (i.e. not as blurry) as years past.
Hope you enjoy! Also hope everyone has a great Christmas!
