As the holidays draw near, I am checking City Place for signs of Christmas spirit and I find some glowing snowflakes on the face of the Harriet Himmel Theatre and Cultural Center in West Palm Beach.
I am happy to find this angle from the Brewzzi deck for my first photo.
Many people are drawn to the open plaza and Il Bellagio fountains, surrounded by a great selection of shops and restaurants.

On December 15, "Jewish Rock" and Chabad of West Palm Beach fill the bandshell with a backdrop of the largess of local merchants for this charitable season.

The band's R & R and a Chanukah message hold the crowd, as twilight falls.
As the lights get brighter, the Christmas tree looks like it is covered in snow, while mini strobe lights are going off.
A Menorah shares the festivities, with the Shamash and 5 candles lit for Chanukah.
As I walk around to the other side of the plaza, I can't keep my eyes off the giant snowflakes, now brilliant against the darker sky.
Behind the tree, Brewzzi beckons with its tastey homemade brews.
The stairway/escalator leads to the open air bar and numerous dining opportunities with generous indoor parking within reach.
Restoration Hardware anchors the Plaza on Rosemary Avenue which travels to and from Okeechobee with floating snowflakes overhead and a continuous parade of cars.
This includes a stretch limo, pausing on the left, for the bride to sneak a peek at the tree.
Tip of the Day: Never underestimate the power of "please."
Hope your holidays are full of peace, love and light,
