It's getting dark...
It's getting early dark now in the evening - the night starts here at 5:00 PM. Also Christmas is coming nearer and nearer and it is a strange feeling to know that only 60% of the family will sit around the Christmas tree.

Manuel and Philip get more and more excited because the package we sent a month ago still hasn't arrived. For them it will be a totally different Christmas than the years before. In the US Christmas is celebrated in the morning of the 25th and afterwards you go the church . Here in Germany first you go to church and then you celebrate it in the evening of the 24th.
