The weather is mild and there are concerts and both indoor and outdoor events to bring in the holiday spirit.

Stage productions with holiday themes are common throughout the season as are holiday concerts and carolers. The streets are decorated and the shopping malls bring out their finest in Christmas decorations to delight children and adults alike. The decorations make it fun to shop!

Another fun place is called Union Square. The stores are decked out in Christmas finest decorations and the shopping is superb.
