Remembering Christmas break in photos (and a little text)
The Zurich Hauptbahnhof (the main train station in the city and the largest train station in Switzerland) is mostly deserted at 7:20 on Christmas morning. Our train to the airport will arrive at any moment. (Do the trains keep a regular schedule on Christmas? Travel anxiety has started.)
A few hours and a few miles later, the wooden shoes remind us that we're finally in Holland (Michigan).
I couldn't wait to get to the beach to try out my new camera lens, but a few other people obviously had the same idea earlier in the day. I was going to shoot a "footprints in the sand" theme with two sets of footprints leading off into the distance. I don't know what this photo means. Maybe lots of people walking with Jesus.
The picnic table and fire pit look a bit forlorn in the winter.
The arrival of snow changes the look of things at the beach. Also, I don't think I ever realized what a steep climb there is back from the beach to the cottage.
No one will be sitting on the deck today. Why don't these people put their deck furniture away for the winter?
This is our street, but I'm thinking that the "rule of thirds" might have improved the composition a bit. There's a photo here somewhere, but I will have to come back to it (next year).
