It turned out that the Christmas party I had been to a few years back is a tradition of our city. Since I had had a pretty good time even by myself then, we went there together this past Sunday evening. Here are a few photos to share with the friends here:

1. The party has name: "Christmas in the Park", as you can see below:

2. The carrousel is a classic ride with many young fans and grownup helpers as well as spectators. It has many innovative variations, too. Here is the most traditional one seen that evening:

3. Two happy and handy young men were there, creating lovely figures and toys out of balloons and attracting a decent crowd around them. We called them the "Balloon Brothers". Can you figure out what they were wearing in their head?

4. Most of the time, Santa or his staff was there, satisfying their customers, big or small. Occassionally, Santa might be away, like in the following case. Can you find out what Santa was busy doing?
