Silver Bells in the city

Every year just before Thanksgiving, Lansing does a really cool parade in the dark just like at Disneyland. The whole town participates in it and it's really cool! There's Christmas music playing and all the high schools around dress up in uniforms with lights and poinsettas. We really had a good time. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the 100,000 people all crammed into about 3 blocks to see the parade. We live only 2 blocks below the parade so we just walked thank goodness cuz the traffic was a nightmare! The best part was after the parade when they did a count down and lit the huge Christmas tree infront of the Capital building and then did fireworks. They were really pretty I wish my camera would have gotten better pictures.
