Trees along a canal are enhanced with tiny gold lights, the Netherlands.
Farolitos are lit in a 15th-century church courtyard, in a special Christmas Eve service re-enacting the Nativity scene.
Wise men walking past cows and sheep kept behind metal barriers in the church courtyard. The house with the five windows and two small ones on the top floor is where we're living now.
Bicycles wrap around the block.

Merry Christmas and Happy New year friend!
Love you.

What is it about peaking into windows at night and seeing the lights of the night. Just enchanting! Thanks for sharing your neighborhood with us.
