Christmas Lights Spotted Thread Lol

[ashneel]

every year Christmas lights are just getting bigger and the displays are awesome year after year.

so if you know of a house or have seen a really awesome houses with cool Christmas displays or funky lights set up post em up for others to check out.

if we can get locations of some good displays around Melbourne can maybe do a Christmas lights cruise

[SS8_Gohan]

Sandringham, near sandy east primary, maybe about 5-6 in a couple block radius have lights.

don't see the attraction personally

Burwood HWY - just before Springvale Rd (near the 24hr kmart)

There is one house there thats so covered its almost causing accidents as people drive past and see it... obviously going WTF and on the brakes to see...

Also McCracken St in Essendon - there are 4 houses on a round-a-bout that always do a massive display

Also in Ivanhoe - there is a boulevard (forget the name, but someone will know it), thats fully decked out most houses

Lorikeet Drive in Taylors Lakes used to be one, not sure what its like today

[dezz]

the one in hoppers is the one that can be spotted by commercial air liners etc..

They even make the road a one way street just for this one house every year

[BeEnAr]

The Boulevard in Ivanhoe is the oldest, but fark trying to drive down it at night, they make it one way only and it is bumper to bumper hardly moving. Heaps of people walking on the road too. You would use a half a tank to drive the length I reckon.

It is sponsored by the electricity company and the houses that do lights get discounted for doing it. I hear there are better ones round now though as most the people who live on the boulevard are too old now to do lights.

On the cruise side of things though, people on the road + lots of cars = lots of cops and possible yellow Christmas windscreen decorations!

Check out the house at 13 Narracan St in Vermont South. It's off Burwood Hwy. A house with lights thrown all over the front yard. hahaha

Went to check it out last night and there's people everywhere, what shocked me most was that there were two tour buses visiting!

I've taken some photos, I'll post them up soon.

Edit: This house is also a Channel 7 Finalist.

my street... every year everyone always has a competition who can have the most nicest looking house. lol. one of the houses in our street have a massive massive tree in their front yard/driveway that loops around it.. will take a picture to show you how big it is. and they actaully got a template made up that fits around the whole tree and lights up.. its insane

[DogKnight]

The one on Burwood Hwy is fkn dangerous. Coming from Kmart side its just out of sight. Then all of a sudden the left lane is filled with cars, middle lane has those trying to park or pulling out.

There is one that always does a good job on the corner of colorado & taupo crescents in rowville.

[AGE]

Scott St, Elwood.... not sure of the number, but you can't miss it!

lol ye same shit for me...

imagine full flight upto 70... then back to 40 soon as the needle hits 70 cause the drongo's jump on the anchors to see whats going on.

Its worse than a cop van with its lights on pulling someone over

Dangerous in my book, if people weren't watching for that split second, SMACK
