Christmas -- Bellingrath's full of color

Bellingrath Gardens, in close proximity to Mobile AL, has gone Christmas colors for the holiday season.

Just this past Friday, the gates were open for their Magic Christmas in Lights presentation.

Nice weather, cool, but not cold temperatures, greeted visitors.

Although the first day, the crowd was not overwhelming and visitors could easily enjoy all the festivities afforded.

For the opening, there was also a trio performing Christmas music. It was great.

Wifey and I, along with a son and daughter in law and four grandchildren, took advantage of the after-Thanksgiving colors.

Decorations of all sorts lighted up the night sky. A truly beautiful experience.

Enjoy the included pictures and make a visit if you live nearby.
