Farmleigh sunset

Today was the annual pilgrimage to Farmleigh for some Christmas cheer.
We did get to Farmleigh. Like a few thousands other folks.
But there wasn't that much cheering.
The kids went into emotional overdrive and were major pains for most of the day.
At first Mimi was nonplussed and Luca downright terrorised.
The big man has a serious competitor in the person of one of the carols singers.
Luca eventually shook hands with Santa, after some gentle coaxing from Pepe.
Meanwhile, hundreds of people were happily being taken for a ride.

The kids have now collapsed in a coma-like slumber.

It was all too much for them.

I can wait to be on the other side of Christmas
