Christmas Eve

Antonia and I did a little shopping. Brent did not want to come?! So what that it took us 3 hrs to go 2 blocks both sides....at least it wasn't 10 1/2 hrs! It should have been really easy for him...

 

 

After shopping we went to Butchart Gardens and spent the rest of the afternoon there.

Brent took us out for High Tea...it was so good...

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the face of a girl who does not like fish, but is really enjoying smoked salmon!

 

 

After tea we walked around the gardens. They had a theme and it was about the twelve days of Christmas.

We walked a second time when all the lights came on and wow!

....three French Hens...

Four calling birds...

Five golden rings....

Six geese a laying...

Seven swans a swimming...

Eight maids a milking...
I skipped the nine ladies dancing as they weren't that good...
Ten lords a leaping...

I missed the Eleven pipers piping and the twelve drummers drumming were on the drive out!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the gardens, we headed back to our hotel and after three tries we found a grocery store that was still open...and it was not even 6 o'clock!

We then took in a 30 min horse and buggy tour around town...so cool...

These are Antonia's pics...

 

 

 

We brought our tree for the hotel room!
