6 Ways to Enjoy a New England Christmas
What image does a New England Christmas conjure up in your mind?
A Currier and Ives scenes of a snow-bound village with festive
decorations... skating on a frozen pond... or taking in an
exciting holiday show in Boston? And if you have kids... no
Christmas is complete without a ride on the Polar Express - New
England style.
Here's where you can experience six holiday magic events this
season...
BRIGHT NIGHTS AT FOREST PARK
Billed as New England's single most popular holiday destination,
"Bright Nights at Forest Park" is entering its ninth season.
Located in the Forest Park area of downtown Springfield, Western
Massachusetts, it's a wonderland of marvelous displays such as
this year' lost in time display where eight mammoth dinosaurs
come to light along side an exploding volcano with flowing lava.
Entrance fee is $12 per car and the show begins on November 23,
2005 at 6:00pm and operates through January 1, 2006.
CHRISTMAS AT THE NEWPORT MANSIONS
Each holiday season the Newport Mansions of The Elms, The
Breakers, and Marble House put on a stunning show of spectacular
evergreens, trees, thousands of poinsettia plants, fresh flowers
and wreaths. The great entrances and hallways display
magnificently decorated trees. The dining tables are set with
period silver and china, and mannequins are dressed in authentic
costumes.
You can see this stunning display of seasonal decorations at
these Newport Mansions yourself November 12 through to January
1, 2006.
NEW ENGLAND CHRISTMAS AT OLD STURBRIDGE VILLAGE
Between December 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 Old Sturbridge
Village in Massachusetts will be transformed so you can
experience a 19th century New England Christmas.
Old Sturbridge Village has always been one of my favorite places
to visit and discover about life in 19th century New England.
Now with the holiday season upon us, the village once again
displays its ability to provide a discovery experience in a fun
and entertaining way, and with a New England Christmas flavor.
THE BOSTON CHRISTMAS SEASON
Whether you delight in taking in the seasonal favorite of Boston
Ballet's "The Nutcracker" or soaking up "glad tidings of joy" at
Symphony Hall with the Boston Pops Holiday Series, Boston knows
how to celebrate the season with special shows and concerts. And
of course there's always the Candlelight Carol Concerts at
Trinity Church in the Back Bay area, and the famous "First
Night" celebration.
The Boston Pops kicks off on Friday, December 9th at 8:00pm and
continues through to their annual New Year's Eve celebration on
December 31st at 10:15pm. The Boston Ballet performs "The
Nutcracker" at The Opera House, and the season starts on
November 25th with performances through December 30th.
POLAR EXPRESS - CONNECTICUT STYLE
The North Pole Express is a popular nighttime steam train ride
with live readings of Christmas stories, hot chocolate and
cookies, sing-along, and holiday surprises. Special guest Santa
Claus has a treat for all children, and you're guaranteed lots
of fun and lots of extras.
Essex Steam Train's North Pole Express operates Fridays through
Sundays December 2 through December 23, with special early trips
on November 25-27. Tickets are sold at the Essex Train Station
in Essex, Connecticut - call (860) 767-0103 or toll free 800
377-3987.
NEW ENGLAND CHRISTMAS TIME AT SANTA'S VILLAGE
Way up north is the village of Santa. You can visit him in the
summer, and you can visit him in the fall, but the best to time
visit him is... Christmastime! Santa's Village is located in
Jefferson, New Hampshire - a spot deep in the White Mountains.
Santa is preparing for his world tour on Christmas Eve, but you
can take a peek for a brief time if you hurry.
The village opens for the Christmas season on Friday November
25th from 11:00am to 7:00pm. Then every Saturday from November
26th through December 17th from 11:00am to 7:00pm, and every
Sunday from November 27th through December 18th from 11:00am to
6:00pm.
Make your New England Christmas magical this year by
experiencing one or more of these attractions. It is after all
the season to create unforgettable memories.
