Another year almost done and a few more decorations added to the tree!!
As tasteful as ever!!! Silver Fern Logo (New Zealand), Dragon (Ljublyana), Bell (Lake Bled), Lemur and Woven Stocking (Madagascar), Shark (pretend he’s a Lemon Shark!), Lava house and Piece of Conch (Cape Verde)
Found on the floor later!!! Holstentor (Lubeck)
Missing in action? I’m certain I bought a mini violin in Cremona in July!
On a rather more elegant note…..

Fellow bloggers, family and friends,
wishing you all the joys of the season
Loved your collection of ornaments from you your travels, Marie. Wishing you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas.
Thank you Annie – I’ve been picking up stuff for years – last year I finally caved in and let him buy an artificial tree – I’d say it doesn’t hold a third of the ornaments here!
Back atcha Marie .
B and T
Hope ye had a wonderful morning in Drumcondra! I’m sure santa was very generous!
Merry Christmas! 🎄
And to you – and best wishes for the year ahead… XXXMarie
What a lovely idea. Too late for me to stary now and copy your tree. I bought a chocolate violon in Cemona but I ate it!
Ha!!!! Still no sign of my violin! probably stuck in the lining of a bag somewhere. Hope you’d a nice Christmas day Marie –
Fun to see all your travel-related tree ornaments! Merry Christmas🎅🏻🎄, and all the very best for 2026!
It’s a great talking point every year!! Anyone calling to the house makes a beeline for the tree, seeking out new additions!
Wishing you happy holidays and a wonderful New Year!!
And to you Jyothi – wishing you all the best for 2026! XXXMarie
Hope you had a merry Christmas! Enjoy the rest of the holidays!
We’d a lovely day thank you – I hope Santa found you!!!
Looks like an awesome day in Dublin, enjoy your stay!
