December 2015
Every year I look for fun "Christmas-y" places to visit during Christmas week. One new place we discovered this year was Shady Brook Farms in Bucks County, PA. Their Christmas light display consists of over 3 million lights and includes displays ranging from light tunnels to iconic structures from around to the world to almost anything else you can imagine. You can drive through or ride on a tractor pulled wagon. We opted for the open-air wagon ride because who wants to take pictures from behind glass while driving.

Vive la France! The Eiffel Tower
Of course there’s a tractor. We’re on a farm.

On to an American landmark, Mount Rushmore
I had no idea Italy and India were that close. The Leaning Tower of Pizza alongside the Taj Mahal
and we’re off to the Great Wall of China
One of the coolest features, the light tunnel
You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch
A forest of lights

Into the tunnel toward world peace. Wouldn’t that be nice!
In the light tunnel. Where’d the world peace go? It was a trick!
Christmas is definitely about believing in the goodwill of people. Oh and Santa too.
There’s Santa!
Christmas carolling
It doesn’t get much more “Christmas-y” than this house. Not sure what’s up with the shamrock though.
