Thank goodness for the hot chocolate and the hot cider served at businesses along Broadway during this year's 21st Victorian Walk.

A cold breeze reminded strollers winter was not only coming but here.

One could just hope the Marine reservist in dress blues collecting Toys For Tots had arctic long johns under his uniform.

Stores were busy with shoppers and browsers and folks enjoying rousing Irish Christmas (like the Unicorn) in Celtic Treasures.

Always a favorite was music outside and from the balcony inside the Adirondack Trust Lobby.

With Broadway closed to traffic strollers were taking advantage of free shuttle service to downtown. If you had been looking for nearby parking space - the East-side was filled as far as Nelson Avenue with visitors.

Fun event and we look forward to promenading Broadway in 2008. Santa and the reindeer will be back, too.
