Here, There and Everywhere, December 2012 - Page GGGG

On this page I begin with a trip to the National Christmas Center in Paradise, Pennsylvania.  Yes, I have
posted photos of the Center before but I enjoy going to the Center and try to visit the area regularly.  
You will see photos of the Lion King Exhibit and then see Christmas displays around the City.   Later in
the month I returned to Lancaster, PA to have lunch at Shady Maple, tour the area and do some shopping.  
You will also visit Grand Central Terminal and see people gathering for the falling of the ball in Times Square.  
There are also photos of other things I found interesting.
Which do you prefer, no flash (left) or flash?
