Signs of Christmas

Today I decided to go shopping for Christmas decorations, such as they are here in Thailand. So off I went to Emporium, a classy, expensive mall that caters to foreigners. I thought surely they would have Christmas ornaments for sale. Well, they had very little for sale, but they had a flashy display of Christmas trees, anything from sunflowers to Elvis to motorcycles to Hello Kitty.

As I wandered around the mall, I saw this glittering "Christmas tree" suspended from the ceiling.

I ended up returning to Big C, a department store more on the level of Walmart, to find a few decorations. So now I have a cute little tree with some fairly chintzy ornaments and a few lights. But I kinda like it. I will keep my eyes open for other ornaments and maybe a few more lights. OH, and I just remembered I had the cute little hand-painted blocks that say "Joy to the World", so I added them to the display. My mom made those blocks for me years ago. Thanks Mom!:)
