It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas, Part 1

It's looking a lot like Christmas all around Guam these days.  There may not be snow, but you can find crystal mistletoe at Macy's, and there is plenty of the ol' Christmas spirit not to mention lights wrapped around palm trees.  And it isn't just homes that are putting up trees and lights; malls and businesses are too, of course.  Here is the beginning of some of the holiday sights in Guam...

This photo was taken at the UnderWater World Aquarium in Tumon, just outside the entrance to the tour.

This photo was taken at the Sea Grill Restaurant at the UnderWater World Aquarium.

The following photos were taken at the Micronesia Mall in Upper Tumon. Unfortunately, the Christmas tree here has not been officially lit, so it's only partly impressive.  I'll need to go back to photograph it all lit up...Yay, another trip to the mall, woot, woot!  Plus, what self-repecting Christmas tree would be complete without a train to go under it?  All aboard!  Santa can be seen taking requests, and patrons in the mall were entertained by a man and woman (just beyon the tree) singing Christmas songs.  What beautiful voices they had!
 
 There are still a lot of places that have decked the halls.  Time to go out and get some night time photos!
