Somers about to mount the stage to sing a Christmas song and Elsa playing the steel drums at their Christmas concerts

Somers with Santa. Elsa doesn't believe in Santa anymore after seeing her Santa's gift last year, a beautiful dragon, was made in China. Compounding the suspicion was the fact that it was wrapped in the same wrapping paper as other gifts from her parents. On the right, Somers and Elsa dressed in the Christmas Eve service at church for the natavity scene. Somers got stage fright so daddy had to don the purple robe and hat and mount the stage with Elsa


Heading out for a quick look for lobsters


Elsa with one of the lobsters mummy caught and Somers getting out of the way. We take them home and release them at the dock, slowly re-populating Fairylands Creek with lobsters

Christmas Eve seems to drag on forever. Killing time on the rope swing in the back and going for a bike ride

Checking out the fishermen's catch at Devonshire Bay and my sister's place across the bay

Elsa looks for critters on the rocks while an exhausted Somers catches a few zzzzzzs

Finally, the girls are asleep under the Christmas tree with a note to Santa telling him to help himself to biscuits and milk and to the carrots for the reindeer

Christmas Day!!! Yay!!! And later on looking, succesfully, for seahorses. Christmas in Bermuda inevitably has beautiful weather
