All lit up (6/6)

This is a series of pictures taken within the space of about one minute, 30 seconds, from the car as we circled the block trying to find the mall’s parking garage entrance. It’s clear that despite what some people think (that it is lit up in a particular color for a week at a time), that it changes color every few seconds. It really is spectacular to watch! I know there are other colors, too, but maybe it goes through a particular cycle on a given evening.

I think the best way to do this would really be to actually walk around the building, but for now, this will have to do!

It was really starting to get dark here but am posting this for the great color of the building.

I think it is more impressive at night time with those colourful lights.
