Winter Wonderland!

Last night was Rachel's 21st birthday! We celebrated by eating out at The Hard Rock Cafe in London.

Then we headed over to Hyde Park to experience a little Winter Wonderland.

This is the Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square. It's a gift to London from Norway every year, as a thank you for the help during WW2. Gotta love those Norwegians! (aka, shoutout to Hilde!!!)


The creepiest mechanical santa in the entire universe. Seriously.


And the party continues on the Tube ride home!

I missed you at Tradition! But it sounds like you had your own version :)

Haha. Oh Norway. I wonder how they managed to get that giant tree over to England.

But actually, I know how it got there. That tree was actually for you. I knew you might need a little Christmas cheer so I asked Erik and Lars if they could do me a favor...

Anyway, thanks for the study break.
