Waterfront Park on the Mississippi.
Friday evening. They do have a parade going through the town ending at the Park. Christmas Carols are song by different choirs, beautiful.
The Mayor did a short speech wishing everybody a blessed Christmas season, then a prayer.
The count down to switch on the lights starts with a fire work display.
Then the automatic (pretend) switch on the light. Never in my life did I see
such a display.
Once again we were wishing our grand children could see it.
The temperature was now 28F freezing point. That didn't prevent the people from La Cross
to come out a d watched the lights.
Our newly friends the Dutch couple Hilo and Judith invited us to Dinner. We met Alexander their son.What a pleasant evening with delightful French cuisine.
They are what any terms will be described as a world wise family.
They have lived in so many countries and speaks, Dutch, French, German
and English.
After a very delightful evening with music shared from different countries. We
said goodbye with a promise to stay in-touch.
