White NIght Melbourne...

... ... last night TraderVic and I went to White Night Melbourne.  For those of you who may not have heard of White Night (they are held in various cities across the world) it is a kind of all night arts festival where various buildings are lit up by lights on themes and art installations are set up across the CBD.

This year was the first year we had been and we headed into the city at about 7.30pm and didn't get home until about 2am!

It was just amazing, hundreds and thousands of people moving around the city, all of the city cafes and restaurants open and lots and lots of fascinated people looking at these light installations.

The theme on many of the buildings was Alice in Wonderland, it was just amazing!























I hope that you enjoyed these photos.

hugs,

That is amazing Kaye. That was all done with lights on the buildings. Gorgeous. My favorite is the second to last one as green is my favorite color.

Wow, these are amazing! It must take so much planning to get everything perfectly lined up with the building underneath.
Looks like a great night out.
