Redwood Shores Great Lights!!!
December 25, 2009
I have been watching this beautiful home with their decorating. This really makes Redwood City really proud to be included with Redwood Shores. You have to drive by this one!
Award winning each year here in Redwood Shores (Redwood City). This year our theme is “The Christmas forest” and we feature a 16ft tall tree containing over 5000 LEDs in 3 colors (Red, White, Green). Its fully animated to 15 songs and is roped off by hand made sleigh rails also wrapped in lights and garland. This year we added “leaping arches” to the front of the yard that are also in sync to the songs. The tree also sprays snow from the integrated snow machine the week before Christmas. We broadcast our show 7 days a week on 89.5FM and also play it outloud on the weekends.
Shows run M-Th 5pm – 11pm and Fr-Su 5pm – Midnight.
Candy canes always available!
One of San Carlos Holiday Home Winner
December 24, 2009
| 2009 is San Carlos 11th year of the best Christmas displays & lights in California. The winners in San Carlos feature 4 homes this year. All of them on Eucalyptus. This one is 1962 Eucalyptus. One of the best things about this street is that you can just park your car and enjoy the walk. But, beware…just after Christmas all the lights start coming down. The street is only one way, due to traffic. | |

San Carlos Light Show
December 23, 2009
Merry Christmas Everyone!
My neighbors and I had such a fun turnout last Friday, we’ve decided to give out hot
chocolate again tomorrow night (Wednesday the 23rd.)
Starting around 6:30 we’ll be out there with hot chocolate (and
schnapps!) and cookies. Stay for a few minutes or for the length of
the light show (40 minutes in a continuous loop)… We are at:
1944 Arroyo Ave
… Can’t stop by?? Drive by and tune your FM radio to 107.5… You
can now hear in the comfort of your car!!
We’ll be running the show (sans hot chocolate) through NY Eve, if we
don’t see you tomorrow!!
Happy Holidays from my neighbors the Hoffmans.

Best Holiday Lights in San Carlos
December 13, 2009
If you and your family are looking forward to the holiday lights from any particular street. It is well worth your while to visit Eucalyptus it is spectacular. What a gem! Even at 10pm, the lights were still up (and no crowds on a Thursday). I think I prefer the home-spun displays over the city organized stuff. Just feels more Christmas-y.

BETHLEHEM A.D. REDWOOD CITY
December 2, 2009

THIS IS AN AWESOME EVENT. A MUST SEE TO ENJOY THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS!
(Of course, this is a picture of the real Bethlehem)
This event is free for the entire family. Bring warm clothes since you can park your car (recommended) and walk through Bethlehem. It can get chilly. There is a drive though for disabled on one night.
Visit on December 21, 22, and 23… 6:00 – 9:30 p.m.
1305 Middlefield Road in Redwood City…
This event is in it’s 16th year is a living recreation of living in the village of Bethlehem on the night of the first Christmas.
Children especially love seeing the live sheep, camels, llamas, Brahma bulls, and donkeys wandering through the village. If you are careful, you might even spot the Three Wise men as they carry their gifts in search of the newborn King.
Outside the village, visitors waiting for their turn to enter, can choose to listen to an audio tape (in English and in Spanish) explaining the historical context of the original Christmas. The mood outside BETHLEHEM A.D. is as lively as within the village walls. Roman centurions mingle with Redwood City police to help direct traffic as Bethlehem villagers mingle with modern-day sojourners standing in line. Searchlights crisscross the night sky, pointing the way to the manger. Music fills the air and a sense of joy and anticipation permeates the entire city block, as well as a deep sense of community uniting people of diverse cultural, religious, and economic backgrounds.
After leaving Bethlehem, visitors receive a Certificate of Pilgrimage and can choose to cross the street to Peninsula Christian Center where free refreshments (hot coffee, cider, and homemade doughnuts) are served on the festively lit patio. The church sanctuary is warm and inviting, allowing for personal reflection about the experience, with a live video feed of the manger and village. Traditional Christmas carols are sung between times of prayer and reflection. The community room is alive with children and families enjoying refreshments and fellowship.
For anyone searching for the real meaning of Christmas, the answer can be found within the walls of BETHLEHEM A.D. Once you make you first pilgrimage to BETHLEHEM A.D., you will find that this journey will become one of your most cherished Christmas traditions!
