Last night, the Hollydazzle celebration at City Center at Oyster Point lit up the sky with a fantastic fireworks show and light display around Fountain Plaza. There were activities for kids and vendors selling hot cocoa, coffee and cider to keep the crowds warm from the inside out in rapidly dropping temps. A big Christmas tree was lit around the fountain, and was dazzling with changing colors long after the event was over. There were quite a few people gathered for the event, too -- it took me an hour to get out of the parking garage!
This dolphin is giving a friendly wave to the audience along with his trainer after a wonderful dolphin show at the Baltimore Aquarium where they also danced together.
I love shopping at Target, and the biggest Target in the area (Target Greatland) is on Jefferson Avenue (I'm still waiting on them to build a SuperTarget here, but with all the Super Wal-Marts in the area, it's probably not going to happen!) When heading over to the Peninsula, the Monitor Merrimac Memorial Bridge Tunnel is the route for me!
