The Chinese Lantern Festival

~ this event cemented the decision to visit Philly.  And although the ticket was pricey for what it was about, for us - it was worth the look-see.
It was good that we did a preview during the day (when it's free) - to see where it was located and what they had to offer and as it turned out - it was great to see the contrast from day to night.  Even in the daylight, the installations were incredible.  Very colorful, huge and whimsical.  Little did we know we hadn't seen anything yet.
Returning in the evening - WOW!  Lights were gor-geous!!   Impossible not to take photos.  So without too many other words - I present The Festival - day & night:





 
 



























The following are just evening shots.  I didn't think to take contrasting photos. Too bad.
