If you have photos of your Christmas tree or Christmas trees around your place (e.g. park, domain, shopping mall), or any Christmas related photos, please share photos with us.


(I will post some Christmas photos shortly.)

Here is my Christmas Tree:

There are lots of lights on it, but the flash drowned them out, and if I took the picture with no flash, it was very blurry.

If you want to see it with lights go to:

You're a riot, John. Hope you've been good since Santa has a tendency to see what we do! :wink:

Here's a photo of me in front of Sydney's Christmas tree in Martin Place.
Image
(the focus was on the tree, not on me)

As for my Christmas tree, I've been quite busy in the last few months. That means I did not put the Christmas tree up, despite that I bought a few decorations way before Christmas... well, I will use them next year.

Although lacking of the tree, the spirit of Christmas - presents - is still maintained. I have been a good boy I know, ;-)
Image

If you look at the photo carefully, you can see a small Christmas tree behind.
Image

I did follow the Christmas tradition - went to bed just before midnight, and got out of bed shortly after midnight, then opening all the presents (completed by about 1:30am). (Then back to bed for the rest of the sleep.)

Merry Christmas everybody.

Happy Holidays everyone!

I was up in Montreal the weekend of Canada's Thanksgiving (also the Columbus Day weekend in the U.S.) and the Christmas decorations were already in the stores. :D

You did WHAT???

Now pay attention. You do NOT open Christmas presents at midnight.

You must wait until daybreak hits, THEN you can open Christmas presents. Besides, Santa wouldn't be too pleased that you were up and about when he was making the package deliveries. That is a sure-fire way to make his Naughty list for next year! :lol:
