The Star in the East

- Backblip -

Nine

I followed the star with my three wise men. We travelled East, to my family gathering.

Determined to get a Blip in the daylight, I was dropped off at the Union Canal Basin in Linlithgow. Lo and behold, and unknown to me, there was a Christmas tree on barge in the basin. How very convenient. "Victoria's" third appearance in my Journal, here in January 2010, and more recently on the Forth and Clyde Canal in September 2011.

All sixteen of us made it, good to be together when we are all so far apart now. Good food, lots of laughs, and the eight grandchildren were eventually persuaded to pose for Granny's annual photocall.
