So my friends at WordPress have changed their editor, so we shall see how this posting comes out!
What has become an annual tradition is a December visit to the State Fairgrounds for the annual Chinese Dragon Lights. In my opinion they are far more colorful and brilliant than any Christmas light display.
There were over 30 displays, all with the fabric framing and back lighting.
This year each had a small sign detailing the display, as well as a small ad. It is good to see they have the support of the business community so we are assured this will continue to be an annual event.
Not expecting to end up there on this evening, all the photos here were taken with an iPhone!
In addition when we went into the pavilion for the entertainment, it was packed. Without a zoom lens, this year’s blog posting is strictly the exterior displays.
The new editor does not allow additional spacing between the photos.
Still despite the photos from an iPhone, and the quirky new editor, the display are vivid online, as well as in person.
This display seems to make it’s way around the midwest each year. Earlier in the year it was in Cleveland, so it is not a ‘Christmas thing’.
To accompany the panda display they had televisions with a live view of panda’s at a zoo in China.
The tunnel lead to the ‘grand finale’
While there were a number of new displays, the castle was a repeat, but worth it.
Always a great evening – the Chinese Dragon Lights.
