This is always the lovely time of the year well, except birthdays of course! But the thing is this year it’s a bit special for us who live here in Bergen since we’re having a white Christmas! You see, it rarely snows in Bergen despite the coldness during Christmas time. We usually get snow after New Year or something like that.

Snow is a magical blanket — it hides what’s ugly and makes everything beautiful.

Merry Christmas to everyone or God jul as we say it here!
That’s all.
P.S.
Everyone is invited to join!

Artig blogg og takk for hilsen!
Siden vi tydeligvis holder til i samme område, så kan jeg trøste med at det blir litt mer hvit jul i kveld
God Jul!
Jeg er så glad fordi vi endelig har fått en stabil vinter rundt jul.
Merry Christmas Charles!
It looks so beautiful but snow always scare the hell off of me. I dunno, I just don’t like “cold weather” but since it’s Christmas, it is nice to have a cup of coffee, on the couch, watching the Xmas lights while opening presents.
Merry Christmas and have a good one, Charles.

P.S. I am residing at Tumblr now and thank you for visiting.
Really? I just love the cold and somewhat loathe the heat. That’s why I am not really fond of summer.
I edited your link in my blog btw. TC!
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Charles! I just love that quote from Ugly Betty. It’s so true. Take the snow and add a few colored lights and you’ve got pure magic!
That’s true especially that snow reflects the lights as well!
I do agree: Xmas & birthdays are the top of the cream!
Glad you even have a White Christmas in Bergen!
God Jul til deg og Odd!
Thanks for upgrading my blog – your so kind and helpful Charles!

It looks so very Beautiful there with all that glorious snow, Charles. I wish you and Odd the most wonderful Christmas. I hope it is Joyous and filled with all the Best Of The Season!
Yes, everything around the city looks beautiful and bright especially at night with the moon shining so bright!
It’s fun to hop around and get a glimpse of others trees and Christmas scenes. Merry Christmas to you!
God jul to you and yours.

Merry Christmas, Charles. And to your husband, too.

and wow, what a view from your kitchen! to be frank i have never seen snow even once in my life!
OMG. Isn’t that view from your kitchen window just majestic?Ü
It’s to die for Charles. BTW, did you finish your novel? I just remembered coz it’s December. LOL. Anyways, Merry Christmas to you & Odd. Have a good one.
I am not yet done with my book due to tons of things to do. I am setting my personal deadline around summer.
That is one of the advantages of living in a place like Bergen, I guess: every Christmas is white.
Make this one a very merry one!
A white Christmas! How lovely for you, Charles. I hope you and Odd have a wonderful day and a great New Year.
Hugs.
I hope you and Odd had a merry Christmas celebration! Snow made our Christmases extra magical this year =)

Hope you’ve both had a great day on Christmas!

Just stopping by to wish you and Odd a very Happy New Year! May 2010 be a FABULOUS year for you both and for all those that you love. (I hope you got my card…)
Yes, my dear….I DID get your card, and I thank you so much for that. I can only assume you haven’t gotten mine yet because one of the things I said in my card was ‘Thank You’ for your card….lol! Anyway, my dear, a VERY VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO OU AND ODD!
Chaaaaaaaaaaase! Oh how I missed you!!! Sorry I’ve been horrible with keeping in touch. Life happened. lol.
Anyway, I love that you guys are having a white Christmas because isn’t it your (yours and Odd’s) first Christmas as a married couple? That’s just so precious and perfect.
Stay warm and enjoy the rest of the holiday season!
