Best holiday light & home decorations in Savannah 2014
Driving around Savannah, Pooler & Richmond Hill looking at home holiday light displays and decorations is a favorite family tradition.
From colossal Santa snow globes to computerized Christmas lights animated with music, we have your guide to local home holiday light displays.
Kids especially love those computerized “dancing” lights display animated with music. Lights choreographed to blink, twink and fade in red, blue, green and white, in sync with a custom-mixed soundtrack of holiday tunes.
