Getting Berlin Christmassy

Oh dear, is it a sign of getting older when you blink your eyes and exclaim 'Is it that time already?'

Well it happened to us.

It doesn't seem a correct duration of time to think that almost one year ago we came to Berlin, visited the Spandau Christmas Markets, and picked ourselves up a little Christmas tree, which was detailed in this entry about the Spandau Christmas Markets.

Today we picked up our new tree. Same size as last year but purchased at a little less Christmassy place than last year - the local budget NP supermarket. Doesn't matter, it's a nice looking tree.

We also stopped off at a shop to pick up extra decorations for the tree, but still planned to use the kept ones from last year, including the nice looking hessian sack the last tree came in!

Our tree looked a bit lonely so we fired up our smoking man and filled the place with the smell of Christmas (which is 'sandalwood').

Looking at our tree and our smoking man I can't stop the old person internal monologue - wow, that year went quick.
