Brisk urban walk to view Xmas lights with stop at Busken

Let's do a six-mile urban hike through Hyde Park to see Xmas light decorations on houses. There are some hills and we will walk at a brisk pace. We will make a stop at Busken Bakery to get their half-priced (after 7:00) donuts. Most of the streets should be lighted, but bring a headlamp in case there are some dark areas. We will meet at the bottom of the stairs at the Ault Park Pavilion, so there will be plenty of parking.
