Last Christmas Sparkles of the year

I hope you all had a lovely cosy Christmas. I thought during these quiet moments after Christmas that you would enjoy these photos I took on my recent trip to Bruges. It was very magical with snow all around, even a Christmas Story Parade including the cutest fjord ponies with their santa hats on! If you want to see larger images just click on them.









Thanks for popping by, see you again soon. Catherine x

Thank you for sharing those beautiful photos of Bruges! I visited there many years ago and thought it was a wonderful city.... even better to see it decked out for Christmas with a wonderland of snow... just like the "winter" scenes from Medieval miniature paintings!
