Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy flowers are so unchanging;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy palms are so unchanging;
Not only green when summer's here,
But also when 'we are in Bali sun'.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy palm and flowers are so unchanging!

We spent Christmas Eve day weaving our Christmas tree and decorating it in true Balinese style. The amazing family at our home stay taught us how to make offerings, which we used to decorate our tree. They also collected flowers from their property for our tree. It is not home, but we couldn't image a better Christmas experience away from home.

To all of our family and friends, we miss you and love you very much. We have spent the past few day sharing Christmas stories and traditions, reminiscing about our families and snow trimmed Canadian Christmas's.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. We send all our love from Bali!
