Christmas Eve 2007


It was so nice to have a hot Christmas!! Like in Hawaii, the weather here was wonderful. Very sunny and warm. The immediate family all came over for a nice Christmas Eve dinner. Traditionally, the bigger part of the celebration is on christmas eve, and nothing much happens on christmas day. Some of the family went to church before dinner. Then we sat down for drinks before dinner, and ate 11pm. The christmas trees i saw in santiago were fake, they´re not big into the pine smell i guess. After dinner, we all opened presents (yes, i got some too!). And then it was off to bed with dreams of santa in my head! Pictures to the right are of the apartment view, with xmas tree, and all the ladies sitting down for an xmas eve drink. No spiked egg nog for us, their traditional xmas drink is a creamy coffee flavored drink with cinnamon in it.
