We had our traditional Christmas Eve decorating session with each child doing their assigned job. Joseph sets up the train, which unfortunately we could not get running this year through the foreign voltage transformer. Marco hung the stockings, Juliana placed the angel on top of the tree (almost tall enough this year), and Maria put out cookies for Santa Claus.
We invited our friends Robert, Julie, Sophia, and William over for Christmas Eve dinner. Robert and Julia are the folks we met back in Blog entry #123 at the Dulwich College cocktail hour in September. They live in a nearby expat compound and are spending their first Christmas in China. We learned over the course of the evening that Robert spent a good part of his childhood in Lexington, Kentucky - Kathleen's hometown. They graduated the same same year from different high schools, had mutual acquaintainces, and lived not far from one another. Small world.
