In December, “A Christmas Light Tour of Brooklyn” offers a chance to visit the Italian-American section of Dyker Heights, made famous in the 2001 PBS documentary “Dyker Lights.”  Dyker Heights residents compete each year to have the biggest and best Christmas light displays; their decorations include mechanical reindeer, 30-foot toy soldiers, and dazzling lights.  The tour also stops at one of Brookyln’s best pastry shops, Mona Lisa Pastry Shop & Cafe, for a complimentary cappucinno and cannoli.(Image Credit)
