Christmas

Coventry Christmas Cracker

20 November 2012 Comments : 6

Hi!
On Sunday the Christmas lights got switched on in Coventry and the whole day was packed with different things happening around the city under the name Coventry Christmas Cracker. Josh and I spent the whole day exploring and enjoy everything that was on offer. It was the perfect day for wandering, the sky was bright blue, it was sunny and the air was really crisp meaning I could wrap up in furry boots and a chunky knit scarf. I don’t think I need to point out again just how much I love Christmas so it probably won’t come as any surprise to learn that I woke up bright and early on Sunday morning and full of excitement like it was actually Christmas Day! It was also mine and Josh’s unofficial anniversary, we tend to always do something a month early as our actual anniversary is only a week before Christmas so it was nice to spend our unofficial anniversary doing things we love! We also went to  Harvester’s for a meal at night where I may have eaten slightly too much… oopps! Anyway I have quite a few photo’s so I’ll get on with it.

There was only ever going to be one outfit of choice for this day and that was the Christmas jumper / Festive nails / Christmas camper vans at the Transport Museum / Christmas scooters at the Transport Museum / Loved this! / Had to resist the urge to scream ‘SANTA!!’ like Buddy does in Elf / Christmas tree / Fairy lights in the trees / Yes it’s Primark but it look pretty with Christmas lights! / More fairy lights

I should point out that the last four photo’s were took on Monday night because it was just too busy to get any photo’s after the lights switch on so Josh went out the rain  to get these (thankyou Josh!).

Has your city had it’s Christmas lights switched on yet and do you have some photo’s? Link me, I’d love to look at some other posts!
