The City of Georgetown as well as the cold, blowing rain came out for the Annual Lighting of the Square. There were Christmas Carols to be sung, the Mayor to be greeted, and Santa Claus to tell your Christmas wishes. I took a few photos out in the crazy cold front from the North, and then hurried over to the Monument Market to warm up with some turkey and squash chili and hot green tea with honey.
It turns out that a rainy Thanksgiving night is a good time to take a photo walk around downtown Austin.
Doing some shopping for my Love at Tiffany & Co. tonight. No, not really, but they have some awesome rings on display. 🙂
It is time for the Holiday Model Train Show at ArtSpace in Downtown Round Rock. It is a series of dioramas surrounded by train tracks. For a $5.00 donation, you can control one of the many trains circling the exhibits. For some reason, this entertains me for long periods of time. Check it out if you find yourself in Round Rock for the Holidays.
This movie tears at your heart as a young lady in the 1950s has to make life changing decisions between her homeland of Ireland and her newfound home in New York. Try and hold on as you follow along with her.
The Univesity Hills Branch of the Austin Public Library had a Kaiju event this afternoon. They showed a Godzilla movie on the wall, had a cool dude in costume for photos, arts and crafts for the kids, snacks, action figures, and books for everyone to enjoy. Yes, it was totally a nerd fest…
I may have practiced some of my Voodoo skillz tonight…
Or, I might have just consumed a Voodoo Doll Doughnut at Voodoo Doughnut on Sixth Street. 🙂
Creek Show is a temporary art installation in Downtown Austin. It is going on through tomorrow night, so check it out if you find yourself in the area.
Here is an interesting concept for a restaurant. Pizzas treated as tapas. 100 Pizzitas also has several full blown pizzas to choose from if you prefer not to sample some of the 100 different 6.5″ sized ones. My favorite tonight was number 59 – Provolone cheese, bacon, York ham, mushroom & cream. There is also a view of the Texas State Capitol building from the patio to enjoy.
It has been a while since I met with these two curious and friendly donkeys. We hung out for a bit, they allowed me to take some photos, and then we bid farewell as I began my walk at Berry Springs Park and Preserve. I finished as the sun was setting, and called it a day.
