🛳️ Seattle Christmas Ship Festival 🎅🏻

The 2025 Christmas memory, for me, is the flowing light on Lake Union. 🌟 I stood by the lake early, my heart filled with anticipation. Suddenly, the first glimmer of starlight appeared at the far end of the dark water, followed by strings of lights winding their way forward—the fleet, as if enchanted, carrying the entire dream of Christmas, slowly sailing into view. Songs from the lead Christmas ship traveled across the water, clear and tender, reaching the shore with every gentle ripple. ✨ But the most moving part was the reflections: thousands of lights from the boats, the city’s glow along the shore, and the scattered stars above—all shattered across the deep blue lake, swaying softly with the waves, blending into a flowing, liquid painting of light. That night, I believed once again: no matter how cold the season, we humans will always create light for ourselves, create songs, create reasons to smile at one another. ❤️ 🎄 Christmas 2025 began with starlight on the water. #Seattle #SeattleLife #Christmas #HolidayMagic #LakeUnion #PNWinter
