Writer's Block: Stardust memories
Dec. 15th, 2010 09:17 am[Error: unknown template qotd]
Since I lived in Florida as a child, my memories don't involve snow, but they do involve lights. Lots of lights. I lived near Thomas Edison's winter home, so we would often go see the lights there.
However, there was one place that topped them all when it came to lights. It was out of the way, but that just made the drive there all the more exciting. These people went all out when decorating their home for Christmas, and I mean all out. There were miniature amusement park rides that moved, there were animatronics, there was a huge rocking horse shaped like a reindeer, there was a life size Santa's sleigh, there were even skiers on the roof with a ski lift! It was a child's dream come true. We went there every Christmas as a family, and each year they added something new.
I rather miss that place.
