So...today my in-laws and Mike and I went to the
Museum of Science and Industry here in Chicago. I had completely forgotten that every year at this time, they put up a "Christmas trees from around the world" exhibit. I was looking around and I said, "Mike - we should get a picture of the China tree for (my cousin)
Sara and her Mya Papaya." (FYI, they are not going to name this baby Mya
Papaya...but it's fun to say...so I say it.) That got me thinking about a e-friend of Sara's whose blog I also read. I am known to venture here and yon on Sara's (and my Aunt Linda's) link list - but there are only a few that I read
every day. One of them is
The Byrd's Nest. They have two of the cutest baby girls
ever and I visit them to help get my daily dose of cuteness. Their Lottie is from China (like Mya Papaya) - but their Emma is from South Korea...so when I saw the South Korea tree, I
had to take a couple of pictures to post.
Here is Mike in front of the South Korea tree. I am of the opinion that everything looks better with Mike.
On the off chance you want to see the tree without Mike in it...I question your taste, but here it is!
A close up shot of one of the little bags on the tree.
The closest equivalent to "Merry Christmas" in Korean.
A close up of these really pretty flowers they have strung all along the tree.
The flag in the middle of the tree.
Beautiful!
