    Pros - fun for younger kids (think toddler aged), smooth flow of traffic, pretty lights, and you…read moreget to tune into a specific radio station to listen to Christmas music during the ride Cons - it's a very short ride. For $20, I guess I was expecting at least a half hour drive. The music didn't sync with the lights which I thought would have been cool. It just wasn't as extravagant as I expected. I don't think I would have paid more than $10 for it had I known how short the ride was. But the youngster had fun and that's all that matters!

    For what it's worth I had a good time. My daughter wants to come see the Christmas lights so I…read morepurchased tickets on event bright for $20 to attend. I went on a Tuesday evening and the light display opens at six I arrived at around 5:30 PM and had a little bit of a wait. They did open the display probably 15 minutes early. The line moves very quickly and we were able to see is the light show in a reasonable amount of time. I remember seeing it in the past and it was a little bit longer before they did all of the construction on the Meriwether property. Now it's pretty condensed and you weave through the actual where actual Merriweather post pavilion and lawn. Took approximately 10 minutes to go through the entire light this way. They recommended you go to the radio station to listen to their Christmas music. I found a little annoying with all of the advertisements that they had on that station so I opted to just use my Amazon music app and play Christmas music through my car radio. Overall I had a good time and my daughter enjoyed it which was the most important part. Something nice to do during Covid when you can't really be out socializing. They have a website where you can go to you and see the estimated wait time for a particular day. As it gets closer to the Christmas holiday I think the lines will continue to get longer and longer.

    The best Greek Festival in town. I didn't feel like cooking and saw this big Greek Festival sign…read moreand pulled in. Was I ever surprised. Not only did I get my dinner, I found advice from Aunt Voula, wine and music. For a great time head to the Greek Festival.

    55th Annual Greek Festival of Sts. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church of DC is my 7th…read morelocal Greek festival that I visited and reviewed. It was A-OK. The litmus test of the cost of beer ($5 for Mythos) passed (not $7 like DC). Unfortunately, a half of the fun is opening the bottle and having it there, but at this festival it had to be poured in the plastic cup by the bar personnel. The food was good. The Greek Ladies have prepared their authentic Greek fare using recipes passed down from generation to generation and producing a menu of Greek favorites like, Moussaka, Pastitsio, Manestra, and Spanakopita as well as succulent Greek pastries such as, Baklava, Galaktobouriko, Diples and Kourambiethes. Unfortunately, the cost was sometimes not justified - $4 for a small hand of the french fries is a lot - even it is "for the church." The picture shows two portions of french fries that I combined in one. The Greek sausages did not meet my expectations - yes, they were lemony and a lot of spice in them but the consistency was too soft and the final mix of taste was not impressive. Not much choice in the deserts department but the credit goes to cook for the excellent Galaktobouriko and Kataifi desserts. There was not any entertainment program going on for 60 minutes I spent there and that was a big downside, where on the other festival you have either bigger market (Bethesda) or non-stop entertainment (Annapolis). The average crowd was mostly retirees but never the less more diverse then at many other festivals. There is no entrance fee and the parking is free.
