Tiger, Tiger .....!


Every winter since 2004 the Koreatown BIA (business improvement area) on Bloor St has installed this gorgeous tiger of lights to brighten up the dreary days and to act as a symbolic guardian of well-being and prosperity for the community. A nice change from the usual Christmas light displays, he is 17' x 8.5' and is made up of 22,000 LED bulbs!

I like! It's different and unusual and very attractive and I also like what it symbolizes!

And a very Merry Christmas to you!

Hi Red Pat,
I keep seeing you over at Deb's blog and as we obviously both have such good taste I thought I'd say hello. Merry Christmas!
