December 13, 2014 - Green Lake Lights

The paths around Green Lake were crowded with people enjoying over three miles of luminaries for the annual Pathway of Lights.  This year's mild, dry weather made for a larger than usual turnout. On the paths, many of the walkers, strollers and pets wear festive lights.  On the water those on stand up paddle boards, kayaks, canoes and dragon boats were lit up as well.

December 8, 2012 - Pathway of Lights

For the 36th year in a row the 2.8 mile pathway around Seattle's Green Lake is lit with thousands of luminarias.  The annual event, a Pathway of Lights, draws thousands of walkers, no matter the weather.  This year it was cool and dry.  The lights carried by some of the walkers only adds to the magic of the evening.
