Christmas in the Colonies

has been changed to Christmas around the World.
But what it really is ... is a craft show. Nice crafts to be
sure, but still a craft show.

No colonial craftsmen hawking their wares, and certainly
no craftsmen demonstrating their skills.

Anyway, it was a nice little jaunt for a Sunday afternoon.

Linda, Daniel and I attended and we stayed about an hour.
The most fun was watching Daniel get his face painted by
a "colonial" garbed lady artist.

As you can see, the design he chose was of a
"Toy Soldier".

The face paint lasted a couple of hours before it started to
transfer to hands, pillows, shirt etc.

He had a great time and the passer's by smiled and pointed.

Cost: $8.00 for the face painting, $4.00 for the Santa Photo,
$2.00 for the Christmas craft (painting a small toy soldier)
Admission for Daniel: Free

Yup, it was a pretty nice couple of hours!

Free, yes. Priceless, no. I've been disappointed the last couple of times I've gone. Daniel looks cute though -- but he does even without the face paint.
