Luminaria Nights
I’ve always found New Mexico to be a fascinating state. From its unique Southwestern architecture to their annual holiday traditions of luminarias, I wouldn’t be surprised if New Mexico were to meet almost all of my expectations and in the process, win my heart. Luminarias aren’t really a thing outside of New Mexico however I was still able to experience it here in Southern California, at the California Botanic Garden. Wonderful, isn’t it?

Claremont’s California Botanic Garden
The California Botanic Garden is a hidden gem within the city of Claremont. I say this because I only learned of this place recently and it’s such a nice find. I doubt many people are aware of this garden but I suppose this is a lie since the garden holds an annual holiday event here that’s quite popular (and on the expensive side) and when I visited the garden, there were a decent amount of people present. Not busy but not empty either.
