Location doesn’t seem to matter to children when it’s Christmas morning. “Did Santa find us?” is the key question! Yes – he did. A cool, cloudy morning was perfect to enjoy stockings, open presents and then spend the morning grazing on tasty treats, making Lego Sailboats and working on new art projects. Mike even gave Amel a Christmas gift of a new Cockpit Dodger roof window glass replacement before our afternoon beach excursion.
I did have a Christmas day dinner plan to attempt to match what we would normally do at home…but none of us were really in the mood. We all decided since we were throwing tradition to the wind this year anyhow – why not mix up dinner too. Homemade pizzas was the vote. Perfect to have the stove on to warm the place up a bit. It totally hit the spot to enjoy eating it in the cockpit with our Christmas lights flashing.
Thank you for all the messages, emails and comments. It is always so great to hear from everyone so far away. Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas!
