A Golden Christmas Tree.

I decided to go to Pacific Fair shopping centre today.

The weather has changed it's a lot cooler, 23c, and it rained.  Which is good for the grass.

I didn't get there until 9.30a.m., but there was plenty of parking available.  I went to all the shops I wanted to go to, but ended up just buying a card.

I was really disappointed in Myer.  It used to be the most wonderful shop and their Christmas department used to be amazing.  But this year, it was very disappointing.  Their Father Christmas was shoved into the electrical department.  I thought this rather odd.  Why not the childrens or the Christmas department.

It's all a far cry from the years when they had a whole Christmas village.  With each individual house selling different things.  Or the year they had a ride on train that took you around the toy department.

Sadly, a sign of the times.

I left by 11 a.m., and the car park was still not full.  Perhaps people are leaving their shopping until the last minute.
