Swarovski Christmas Tree - Eaton's Centre

I was in the Eaton's Centre and saw the annual Swarofski Crystal Christmas Tree unveiling in early November. It was a huge production, with live performances by Deborah Cox and a count down revealing the sparkly tree.

It's was an early preview of the Christmas spirit. The best part was that it really brought a lot of people (huge crowds!) together in one place. It is quite spectacular, and reminds me of New Years (lots of people, music, count down, sparkly item unveiled.)

 In a way, it brings new meaning to celebrating Christmas at the mall. But let's be honest - we all love the holidays- time with family and friends (which usually involves giving and receiving gifts.)
