OUR CHRISTMAS TREE

Well, here it is, completely dominating the loungeroom! Ready to be decorated. Now, you must realize that we either gave away, or left most of our decorations in Australia. I must also tell you that I keep sending the lovely German decorations we are given by friends to our family in Australia. So when it came to decorating the tree........

..... but Roger always has a good shot at it. The tassel decorations come from Japan! Roger then discovered tinsel in France (you can't buy it here in Germany). Australian's can't have a Christmas tree without tinsel (well, not at least these Aussies). This was taken during the day with the Christmas lights on, but you can't really see them. We will make another attempt some other time (maybe when the kids come back from their galivanting around Austria and Prague).
