  Centris Walk at Eton Centris recently held its Christmas tree lighting ceremonies in celebration of the Yuletide Season.   Its 45ft-tall tree is situated amidst the iconic modern canopies called Constellations. These architectural marvels that light up in different soft colors provide a stylish backdrop to the Christmas tree bedecked with colorful lights and trimmings.   A grand fireworks show held everyone's attention as it filled the evening with fun revelry. The Heralds Choir serenaded the crowd with Yuletide favorites from classic Christmas carols to upbeat pop songs.   The young and old alike were also delighted to see Santa Claus who came in riding his Magic Sleigh. Kids had the time of their lives as they sit on his lap and had their photo taken with Santa.   Exciting Yuletide activities are lined up this December at Centris Walk, beginning with the "Simbang Gabi" the traditional nineday novena masses at 6 p.m. from Dec. 15 to 23.   Those who want to go shopping away from the madding crowd at the malls, they can visit the food bazaar where abundant choices await them.
