Zoo lights

Brookfield Zoo magically lit up at around 4.  We had walked the entire vicinity at this point so we decided to take a ride on the Jingle Bell Tram (normally the Motor Safari).  While waiting in line for tickets, a woman came up to us, handed us four tickets and said, "Merry Christmas!" 
A holiday miracle? I think so!

Around Roosevelt Fountain the corporation trees "danced" to music with synchronized lights.

We got off the tram to see a laser show at 5:30.

After the laser show, we walked around for a little bit more before calling it a day.  Overall, the lights were beautiful!  As Adele said while on the tram, "This is such a holiday thing to do."  That it was.  We had a jam-packed day!
