1) Holiday Lights Bus Tour
December 18 starting from Grand Rapids, we'll start with a filling meal along the way in order for the sky to darken. Then we'll take in the Christmas Lights in metro Detroit - we'll see blue lit trees, nativities, amazing displays on buildings, a holiday lobby and plenty of other places designed to delight. Naturally, we'll make a couple of shopping stops in very unusual stores. This tour changes every year. $58person
