'Tis the Season

So, after spending Saturday afternoon in the office (fun, I know!) we met up with a few of our friends, and went to the KrisKrindelmart (or something). It's basically a little German village with beer and hot cider, and Brats with Kraut. Good stuff. We've gone a few years in a row now, and it's always fun, but always WAY too cold out. We thought James (a recent transplant from South Africa) was going to die.

So we made our way over to Fado, a good standby for a beer. And the ENTIRE place was filled with Santas. There was one in roller skates. Another carrying around his own xmas tree. Another, the Santa Master, had a microphone and was controlling the crew in christmas songs. There were literally 50 - 70 Santas! After talking to a few of them, we come to find out that they are all doing this for charity, to support the Homestead foundation. They all looked like they were having a great time.

This guy did a mean Stevie Wonder!

After a while, they took off, headed for the next bar of the day, but they certainly left the place filled with smiles and good cheer! A night we won't soon forgot.
