Feeling a bit festive #Friyay? 🎉 Christmas frivolities may feel like a relatively modern invention, but mischief and mayhem have been a part of festive traditions since the Roman times. ➡️ eht.social/392FFmC

Christmas can be quite tiring. Tom gets very excited about his presents and rather cross. So he and Grandpa go for a walk together in the snow, just the two of them. The sun is very big and red. 2/2

Canadians love heritage! ♥⁠ This is the Railway station, in MacAdam, NB sent by Jeannine Copp. "The village was built around the railway and was the hub of the town. Now it has been restored to its former glory and people come in for 'Christmas at the Station'".
