We have a Christmas show winner... (gallery)
After the total disappointment at the first two Christmas displays I decided it was time for a third one. And woaw, now we're talking!
On my way home from work today I stopped by at another Christmas show to see what they had come up with. And now I feel it. Cause this store really did good.
Even more amazing is the fact I was almost alone in the store, even though it is both Friday.
Cause apparently it is some kind of national bank holiday in Germany today which normally means the Germans invades their neighbours for shopping, more shopping and even more shopping.
Did I mention shopping?
Accept for a tiny sequence with some show girls [but why] this store and their display really sold in the concept and spirit of Christmas. Love it!
Do I love the fact most things are made in China and will never see the light of day after this year's Christmas is over and out? Heck no!
Us humans could do way better than that.
But, what I do love is the fact this holds on to both Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and a strong tradition of Christmas, Christmas joy and Christmas celebrations. So what's not to like?
My next goal is to manage to find both time and my way to IntraTuin in Duiven, the Netherlands.
Rumour has it, Duiven host one of the, if not the biggest, indoor Christmas displays in Europe.
They attract over 100.000 visitors a year just for the Christmas display. So I am thinking what the heck could ever go wrong with a trip up north!
But for now, please feel the Christmas spirit and check out these photos from today's venture. I believe it was totally worth it and cannot wait till I can kick off with decorating our own house for the Holiday Season.
