Second trip at night to see the "snow" and a drive round the houses. Had to park "nose in" near Sycamore this time as Front Street closed near Market Street for the snow and the ice rink.

Today is day 29 of our 29 day holiday. 90% of the time has been wall to wall sunshine in the low 80s high 70s with a couple of cloudy days over Thanksgiving. Today drizzly all morning and struggling to reach mid 50s.

Nice to see the local Stepford Wives - oh sorry, I mean residents.
I often wonder what the demographics really are there.
The only person I know who lives there is now a programmer at Disney and went to work there after a few years of very early retirement (he was an early apple employee and then moved to Netscape in their early days and bought maximum employee share options with both ... very smart guy)
He bought his house in the first year of Celebration .
He certainly doesn't fit the Stepford stereotype and I always mean to ask him if his neighbours do !

If you get chance to have a ride round a couple of the Estates off Legacy Park Boulevard some of the houses are fantastic 🎄 we thought some were better than the ones in Celebration.
Hope you and yours have a fantastic Christmas

We are here now and boy has it been cold today. We have never had it this cold. We have been so lucky but don’t think it will go as hot in the next few days 😢

We hired some bikes there and went on a recommended route - really easy paced and saw some fantastic houses and woodland area on the boardwalk. Good fun - would highly recommend

On a Sunday there is a market between 9 - 2pm. Last March it was better than in September, so does vary on the amount of stalls, then we normally walk back to the ice cream store

There is also a Post Office not open on Sundays in main street.

Melvin and Lesley
