La Salette

I remember going to LaSalette when I was younger.  I don't exactly remember the age but I think I probably went with the CYO (Christian Youth Organization) through my church so I must have been around 12-13 years old.  I remembered having hot apple cider and being in awe of all the lights.  Since we don't have Christmas markets to go to here as there are in Europe I decided this was probably the closest I was going to get and it would keep some continuity in our Christmas traditions.  We brought the kids there over the weekend and I'm glad we did.  There were 300,000 lights on display.  The kids loved it!  It was cold out and fortunately it did not take that long to walk though and see all the lights.  We didn't get a trdlo but we did split a dough boy!
