Shang Dan kuai le! (merry Christmas)

This week is the run up to Christmas! We have our advent calendars and are teaching our Christmas lessons including a clip of a mr bean Christmas, which I am getting sick of, and a Christmas carol, which chris is quickly getting sick of!

We spent monday night putting up and decorating our Christmas tree that we bought on the internet but thought it was a little small at 1.5m. We showed and Elaine and she agreed and yesterday arrived with a new tree asking us to move ours to the office and put hers up in our house.

Hers is a giant at over 2meters tall and with many decorations to match we spent another evening decorating a Christmas tree, this time with Elaines help!

This afternoon I carried our little tree all across campus full decorated causing several classes worth of students to press their faces to the window to see, much to the dismay of their teachers! I had to do the move during lesson time though to ensure the tree arrived unmolested and is now setup in my office facing out through the big window. Hopefully enough so students will see it but not so people can mess with it! Although I wouldn't be surprised to find it gone, to a students classroom or a teachers house!

Pictures of the baby tree and its transport attached! Pictures of the big tree to follow!
