GardenFest of Lights 2013: A Collage

Duh. Of course this is going to be a picture montage/collage.  How could I write about a bunch of beautiful lights? You have to SEE them.  And honestly if you haven't seen them yet, you really need to plan a trip and get out there before the season is over.

The folks over at The Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens have put a lot of work into laying out and stringing up over HALF A MILLION lights all over the garden grounds for the annual Dominion GardenFest of Lights (along with botanical decorations, holiday dinners, and more). And the results are amaaaazing.  Check out some highlights below.

And seriously, if you haven't seen this for yourself yet, make it happen.  The GardenFest of Lights runs from Friday Nov. 29th to Monday Jan. 13th (only closed on Dec. 24th and 25th) from 5:00 to 10:00 pm.  It's always open rain or shine, unless there's SUPER inclement weather.  General adult admission is $11, or $10 for seniors, $7 for children ages 3-12, and children under 3 get in free!  It costs $6 for members unless you go on a member night (and see the Lewis Ginter website for those dates and other info).

Hope you guys enjoy and make it out to appreciate this beautiful event!
