Christmas Wishes

Merry Christmas to all our family and friends. It is early evening, Christmas Eve and we are staying at the Hotel Astoria in Vienna Austria. We plan to go out at 10.00 PM for a late dinner and then go to Saint Stephen's Cathedral for Christmas Carols by the Church Choir and Midnight Mass. We love and miss you all, and hope for a safe and happy Chistmas for everyone.
