We discovered that the walking tour was pretty extensive this year. It took us two nights to cover everything, but it was very enjoyable. With Caledon being as big as it is, it's often difficult to know which neighbors are putting together truly impressive builds. Events such as this highlight worthy spots throughout the nation and are a rather fun way to pass the time (even if they do tend to fill your head with decorating ideas). :)

We found the giant in Perenelle! Well, don't look at me, I didn't kill him!
