Well the pre-booked spectacle of Christmas lights at local Longwood Gardens (http://www.longwoodgardens.org/) was beginning to look like a bit of a waste of money as M hadn't actually been able to open his eyes for the previous 24hrs (see earlier post), but as the day wore on he rallied enough to join us for the visit. The gardens, lights, tree houses, Christmas trees and wreaths in the conservatory were an amazing sight (even wearing sun glasses). Some personal favourites were the wreaths made from gingerbread maple leaves, the "silver" Christmas tree made from live aloes and cactuses and the lantern lit walkways as it grew dark. Next year we will go earlier to enjoy the gingerbread houses too. Americans sure know how to decorate for the holiday season. We hope that the eyes continue to recover.
