Yeah...this year we have been in time with buying a christmas tree!! Last year we were very late and had to take one of the left-over trees for a horrible price!
Today we took a walk and only 700 metres from our home there was a man selling christmas trees. He was one of the few sellers that were open on sunday too, and he had hundreds of nice trees available still. That was very relaxing and we took our time until we found tree one that was good for everyone of us.
Since we have been there by foot only, we had a little transportation problem then, but I found a good solvation: we took a shopping cart/trolley from a nearby supermarket, out in the christmas tree and "drove" it back home.
Even if we were happy to have a little less now to think about, I had another thought coming into my head. How many christmas trees will stand in our living rooms all over the world for christmas? And, wouldn't it be an even better feeling if we all would celebrate christmas without a christmas tree?? I am not sure about that...for many people it wouldn't be real christmas days without a tree.
What do you think about that? how is the tradition in your country?? Could you do without a christmas tree?
