I spent a beautiful day at Niagara On The Lake yesterday with a group of people I know from Toronto. I went to see White Christmas at the Shaw Festival. I loved the venue finding it cozy probably because of the wood within the interior. The staff in Niagara area is always welcoming and polite which enhances the experience. The only thing missing was snow, because watching the play was joyful and Christmas began to fill me. We also did some shopping, the first time in a long time for me mainly because of lack of time. I bought two tops which I wouldn't have worn a year ago, but what the heck. One is Mickey Mouse shouting Merry Christmas and the other is white with silver beads. Now I just have to try them on to see how it fits. I also bought some warm slippers which was a hit. Of course chocolate which has become a staple in my home. It ended with a trip to a restaurant, a new place which I won't identify because there was a lipstick stain on the coffee cup brought to me. Otherwise the food was fantastic as was the service. I didn't realize how empty the night is at Niagara On The Lake. They definitely hang up the sidewalk. What a contrast to the business of my city. I was planning on doing a lot of paperwork today and attend a meeting where I wanted to say goodbye to colleagues and let them know I am leaving but I think I will pause and put up my Christmas ornaments. The play lifted my Christmas spirit, so work can pause a bit longer. What do you think?
