Christmas Eve dinner was at her grandma's house and started at 9 PM. They eat really late in Italy. It is tradition to not eat meat on Christmas Eve so everything had fish instead. DELICIOUS!

| We brought Christmas crackers from England to Italy. This is a tradition in England when you pull it pops open and there is a joke, toy, and hat inside. |

You fit right in with those Italian's with your complexion! Looks like a great way to spend a holiday.
It was! Thanks Kels!! I wish the sun would come out a little bit more in Oxford though.
