Christmas Time

When I was visiting Melbourne crossing  Elizabeth Street I saw this Christmas greeting on the side of the Flinders Street Station.
Even the foot bridge had a decoration
 as well as the Melbourne Town hall being all wrapped up!
This is the Christmas tree for 2012.

Tomorrow is Christmas Day.  I wish everyone a very Happy and Joyous Christmas and a peaceful time over this holiday period.

That's all for now,

Christmas Market

 Last Saturday I went for a walk up to the Christmas Market .  In December the Main Street is closed off to traffic to make it easier for people to wander and visit all the stalls.
 There was a jumping castle
 pony rides for the children.
 The Jazz Band took their post in the bus stop and added to the morning with their music.
 There were lots of Christmas items for sale.
 Lots of knitted teddies
 and other toys.
 Here are a variety of hair clips that were available to purchase.
 Scarves in many colours.
 and these two beautiful dolls needing a good home,
 and handbags galore.
 These cows were great to see, some one's creativity.
Of course it would not be a Christmas Market without Father Christmas.  He was kept busy with all the children.

It was a lovely day, the predicted rain did not happen which made it much more enjoyable.

That's all for now,
