Tom and Jerry's Decorated Christmas House and Lights in S.F.

Christmas light, Noe Valley area, SF

I love Christmas and love watching any shows related to the theme.


While in Toronto, Canada I watched an episode of a TV program called the Great Christmas Light Fight on an U.S. channel.

Tom & Jerry's decorations outside their home in Noe Valley, SF

In this show some Americans have gone to the extreme decorating their houses and properties with Christmas lights and entered to compete with each other to win the title.












In this particular episode, it featured Tom and Gerry's house, one of the final four contestants from San Francisco

.

I knew we were going to the city soon and made a note of the address of this well decorated house.

We went to visit this house while vacationing in SF as it has made it to America's national television.

Though a raining evening, parents brought their children to see the light show at Tom & Jerry's decorated house in SF.

It was not a good evening to go looking for this house. It was drizzling all the way but we were determined.

Located on the 21 Street of  SF, the house was quite far from where we were staying. But we were determined!

Tom and Gerry's house is a private residence in the Noe Valley area.

Apparently they have been doing this over the top decoration for years and it keeps growing.

The scale and details of the Christmas decorations were remarkable!

There were young families with kids coming to watch the lights and the decorations. I liked it!

My hubby said that I am a very curious person and a kid at heart.

Yes, I am a big kid!  Doing  all these kiddy stuffs make me happy, therefore, why not?

After visiting this house full of Christmas decorations, we walked down to the Castro District to explore the area a little.

The Castro Theatre, San Francisco

We passed by the Castro Theatre which was designated as a historic landmark in 1996.

The Castro District is a community with many nice restaurants and shops

The Castro District is synonymous with the gay culture in San Francisco.


















We passed by numerous eateries offering a wide variety of ethnic food.












We went into a place called Slurp, sat by the window looking out to the street.

We did some people watching while enjoying some fusion Thai food there.

A Google shuttling bus taking its employees to & from work in SF area.

We took the public bus back to our inn.

While waiting for the bus, we got talking to one of the ladies waiting at the bus stop.

 She was very friendly and explained to us the numerous unmarked buses passing us that they were Google buses transporting the company's employees to google from various parts of SF.










We met nice people, heard interesting stories and enjoyed a fantastic light show. What an enjoyable day we have had!
