One of my favourite memories of Christmas time as a kid was looking at Christmas lights. The whole family would pack into the car on a balmy December evening and head to the usual hotspots around town, stopping to "ooh" and "aah" at all the garishly decorated homes. With school finishing up for the year and the big day just around the corner, my brother, sister and I would be more excited than Tom Cruise on Oprah's couch.
So with Christmas fast approaching, I thought it would be a good idea to get tips from Weekend Notes readers on where to find Sydney's best Christmas lights. What street do you visit to see the best lights Sydney has to offer?
Even people living in units and apartments can get into the spirit.
Some suburbs and streets have spent years building a reputation for their blazingly bright displays, and you can see a list of some great areas to visit
here.
Around where I live in North Ryde, streets like Chauvel Street and Cutler Parade usually put on a good show, and I'm hoping that'll be the same this year.
But I'm sure plenty of you know of one or two great Christmas light locations around Sydney, so why not share them with the rest of us?
