It’s Beginning to Feel a lot Like Christmas!

While strolling through Union Square I couldn’t help but get into the holiday spirit.  It seems like the city of San Francisco goes all out when celebrating winter festivals.  The shops are all playing holiday music, and they have decorated both the inside and outside of their buildings.  Take a look at the pictures below and check out the wreathes that Macy’s have put up in their windows.  Can you use your skip counting skills to find out how many wreathes there are altogether?

Also getting people excited about winter is the skating rink that has been setup in Union Square.  Families and friends were having fun skating around the ice while looking up at all the decorated trees and shops today.  Have you gone skating at an outdoor rink?
Enjoying the some outdoor activity, these people are skating around Union Square.
Sometimes cities take traditions and change them up a bit to fit in with what they have to offer.  Look at the picture below.  How is this tree different from a traditional Christmas tree?
There is something a little strange about this Christmas tree?
