………………..In COLMAR we found this tiny jewel of an antique shop that had all kinds of Christmas ornaments and toys…..I had promised myself that since I was going on a cruise next December 2026, visiting all of the Christmas markets along the way….I wouldn’t buy any Christmas ornaments!……..but…….when I saw these SANTA TOYS….I couldn’t RESIST!!!……I had never seen anything like them, and didn’t know if I would ever find them again…..so I bought FOUR of them, and plan to put them on my Christmas dining table….They are pendulums and when you move the bottom ball they swing and all of the parts move!….What can I say….I’m a sucker for anything CHRISTMAS!…….I couldn’t RESIST!

Sounds like you had a wonderful trip, Louis. You found some more treasures to add to your collection. The toy Santas are MARVELOUS….and what fun. TFS with us.
Louis,
Your Christmas finds are all charming. Love the Santa. A cruise in December sounds like great fun – especially getting to visit shops with lots of Christmas treasures. You will be in your element.
