January 3, 2010 Snowflakes light up the Huntington Beach Pier and Main Street through New Year's Day. Approximately 84 artificial snowflakes strewn with twinkling lights adorn light downtown Huntington Beach. They are a delight to see. There are 48 on the pier and 36 stretching along Main Street from Pacific Coast Highway to Orange Avenue. Traditionally placed along Main Street and the Huntington Beach Pier, they are truly beautiful displays of holiday spirit in Huntington Beach. Watch the twinkling lights reflect on the Pacific Ocean waters below.

BLESSING OF THE WAVES
Photo taken by Chris MacDonald, a 27-year resident of Huntington Beach, shows the "Blessing of the Waves" event. An Interfaith Council event brought together priests, religious leaders and surfers to celebrate the ocean.
A ceremony lasting approx. half an hour included speeches, the blessing, and a nod to the Pacific Ocean's turbulent waters that kept novice surfers on shore simply watching in reverence.
