St. Nicholas and snow!

    It all started with another dinner with my "adottami" family which was simply beautiful and the first real feeling of Christmas. The next day on the 6th was the day of St. Nicholas which is in this part of Italy considered to be the most important day of Christmas. My day started with opening of the new supermarket Coop here in Duino and I had the chance to sing there with choir. Not that it would be something terribly interesting but I think that this supermarket will make our lives much easier.
    In the afternoon there was sining and dancing in the Piazza for all people in Duino and I must say that it was very magic atmosphere. Loads of kids, food and hot drinks :)
    Finally, the next day - snow!
For me it wasn't such a great experience but to see all the people who had never seen snow before in their lives was simply beautiful. Even now one day later you can still see people outsides having snow-ball fights.
    Because it's Christmas time we have loads of things happening now. Yesterday was Open Mic, where anyone who want to show any kind of performance is welcome to do so. And today I can look forward to night orienteering and birthday Mickey's!!
