We have multiple Christmas traditions here. In Germany, the Christkind brings the presents on Christmas Eve, usually in the evening. We took that tradition, as well as Santa from the US (stockings only, to be filled overnight for the kids to discover on the morning of the 25th).
We wrote to both the Christkind and Santa to tell them we would be in Austria. The Christkind brought Jay his (finally!) lightsaber and Nils a Star Wars Captain Rex costume. Since we were still (trying to remain) asleep when the kids dug into their stockings, we have no photos of it. But the Christkind won the best gift prize this year anyway.
On the 26th, it snowed almost all day. The snow is too powdery to make a snowman or even snowballs, but we took some clumps of snow we found and buried Nils.
