Gardeners are enchanted, kids have a ball and families celebrate together. Where? At the “Garden of Lights” at the San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas. Bring a camera for shots of twinkling holiday lights (more than 90,000 sparkle in the garden), marshmallow roasting, caroling on hayrides and more. Live music and hot mulled wine add to the holiday spirit. Details are at www.sdbotanicgarden.org .
