Eclectic and getting eclecticker…

A couple of weeks ago, B bought our tree (near Schwetzingen). She swears it looked much smaller “on the lot” (it’s tall and much girthier than it looks below). Anyway, we all set about decorating it that night. IMG_4042 (682x1024)It’s not as well illuminated as in past years as a couple of strands of lights went on the blink (actually, off the blink) and we couldn’t be bothered to try to track down replacements. My favorite ornaments are still the ones we picked up in Amsterdam.IMG_4001 (1024x685)This year while in Brazil we bought a beautiful Baiana to give the tree a bit of tropical color.IMG_4012 (683x1024)We also hung the ones we got in Greece. IMG_4056 (1024x684)We now have four continents and a whole slew of countries and cities represented. If we don’t start staying put, we’re going to have to put up multiple trees, probably starting next year.
