Virginia Beach holiday lights on the beach



All dressed up and avoiding the dinner table




While Linda and I were on a short walk about after a grand visit with our daughter we opted to stay at Virginia Beach one last night out. From our hotel room balcony we could see there was a holiday lighting spectacular arrayed along what is normally a shore side walkway.  The walkway was closed to pedestrians and opened for auto traffic.  The lure was great enough that we returned to our truck and joined the procession to see first hand the lights.  Below are several photos and a couple of videos of the animated displays that had been erected and lighted.  I hope these brighten your spirits and give entrance to the holidays ahead.  (if some look a bit blurred it is a combination of slow shutter speed and the twinkle lights used on the display>)


The view from our room

















Some of the 12 days of Christmas were apparently missing from  display or they were well hidden from the undecerning




I believer  thisis supposed to be a sand buggy but the license plate makes me wonder who designed this for the holidays?


display by an old codger! who uses a desk phone anymore?










This is required at every beach community during the holiday season.


Santa shows he is no Barney by carving out the lip


Virginia Beach is home to several military bases and a large naval base.



O'boy! Now is time to get me dressed for the big day!
