December 2005
A few years ago, Emily and I went to Allentown, PA to see Lights in the Parkway. During the holiday season, the Little Lehigh Parkway is closed and decorated with thousands, if not millions of Christmas lights. In 2005, I went back to see it again, but first made a stop in Bethlehem, PA. Bethlehem is known as Christmas City, USA for good reason. While there, we also stopped at the Comfort Suites for the Ethnic Christmas Trees display.
