Season's Greetings

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas is in full swing here already.  Never have I seen so many blow up snowmen or flashing lights.  Since Thanksgiving we have been regalled by greetings, carols and candy canes.  This week was the lighting of the Christmas tree and a nice tradition where every afternoon a different government ministry gives out lollies and small gifts to the children.  

The picture is of a Christmas tree made entirely of recycled bottles!  The hotel has 4 of these trees and takes almost a year to make them.  They also have an amazing amount of lights and Santa arrived in a sleigh.  This is the most full on Christmas I have ever had so far.  So as normal we will be doing a festive swim.  Not sure what will happen after that.  And we only get one day - there is no boxing day (so no boxing day sales I guess).

We wanted to wish you all tropical Christmas greetings and a fabulous healthy and fulfiling 2015.
