A little rain didn’t stop annual Holiday Stroll in Wellesley Square

The holiday spirit wasn’t dampened by a little rain at the Wellesley Square Merchants’ Association annual jolly and festive Holiday Stroll over the weekend. Carollers roamed the Square, along with Frosty and Rudoph, and Santa arrived in a Wellesley Fire Department hook and ladder, preceded by a police escort.

Here are a few Holiday Stroll pics:
