On Fridays, many of my travel blogging friends join together for Photo Friday, a collection of photos taken from their travels.
My participation in today’s Photo Friday is this photo taken during the Christmas season in Arizona. Taken looking down the street just outside the Scottsdale Mall. The street was lined with palm trees, brightly decorated with holiday lights.
