On Christmas Eve, we spent the day Downtown to do a little last minute shopping to include stopping by Provident Camera to buy some camera goodies. We also visited the Duke Energy Train Holiday Train Display and capped the evening off with a nice dinner at the Palomino Restaurant.  The crowds during over the last month have been fantastic.  It is great to see people enjoying city life on their personal time again.  The one negative (and it is a negative I can accept) is that you need reservations to eat at many of the resturants now.  My family and I have been turned away from Via Vite Restaurant on Fountain Square four times due to booked reservations.  Next time we try to eat there, I think we will have my own reservations.  While Downtown, I had access to one of the office buildings so I was hoping to take some good aerial shots of the city but the glare through the windows wasn’t cooperating so in the end I only took two photos that were worth sharing.  The reside in the Over-the-Rhine Gallery and can be viewed here and here.
