Christmas tree madness

The day before Christmas eve is when we dress our Christmass tree. Or bedeck it. Not for us a colour-coordinated, stylish creation. The decorations come in all shapes and colours. Some of them are really old, from my grandmother. Some are made by various family members. Some are cheap plastic. And there are a lot of decorations.

I usually buy something for the tree when I travel. Last year I went to Marrakesh and brought back a small camel made of leather from the bazaar. This years addition is from London where I bought the frog from the tales by Beatrix Potter. When I was a child the dancing animals was shown on TV every Christmas so I thought the frog would fit in nicely in our mad tree.
