I can’t believe its just 13 days to go for Christmas. Holiday spirit and Christmas vibes are in the air. People have decorated their houses and malls have lit up the Christmas tree and put up the decoration. While all festivity has already begun how can I miss to put up my Christmas bucket list for the year of 2019?
This is my 2nd year celebrating Christmas in California, but 1st year I just got back before Christmas from India. Hence, I didn’t get the chance to explore the Christmas activities of LA. It’s time to explore South bay Christmas traditions. Feel free to suggest LA traditions in the comments.

Last year I had posted a series of blog posts to celebrate magical Christmas at various destinations with the help of my guest bloggers. Check those fairy tale destinations at the Christmas fun category. Though California is really popular because of sunny weather all year round, I still miss Wisconsin during Christmas. The best thing about Wisconsin Christmas is watching a snowfall, having hot cocoa and watch Christmas movies. The Gingerbread house display in the Milwaukee public market and Candy cane lane Christmas lights are my favorites.
