Default GIGANTIC X-MAS TREE

This has to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest christmas tree i've ever seen.

Cool Re: GIGANTIC X-MAS TREE

that is a gigantic and lovely tree

very impressive

some places over here .. like the mansion house in the city.. have massive trees outside.
needing special equipment to place the lights on top (shock)

and in some country town squares there are huge trees something like it
with the nativity scene placed underneath .

maybe not quite so big
lol
not too sure about that

Ya wanna see a big tree, you should go to Disneyland. The ornaments on the thing are about the size of basketballs. I thought I had a recent picture of it, but I had to go all the way back to 2002 and my old Olympus C-4040Z... I need to get there this week and take a new picture of it.

Would someone please post a photo of the tree from Rockefeller Center? Or the national tree from Washington, DC?
