So what did you get as christmas present?

Well, I can start as over here we open the gifts already on Christmas eve. I got a new monitor (I already have it as my parents won it in a lottery three weeks ago), two tickets for parties at Carnival and part of the ticket to Sardinia. The greatest present I got was the one I made to myself yesterday by booking the flight to Tahiti.

We booked flights for my parents to Sardinia for Easter too and this was our Christmas present for them. My dad had no clue but my mom knew. So in order to make some fun we wrapped some items and my dad had to find out what the present was (mom had to pretend she didn't know ): first they got a Zip-Loc bags to put liquids in as carry-on and dad didn't have the slighest clue what this was. Then both got Easter eggs (as we are going for the Easter holiday). Third clue was a barf bag from the airline we are flying . I was really proud of that one - got it thursday when I went to Zurich as it was the same airline. So he started to have an idea. Then we got bottles of wine with the name of the village we are going to. He found out after the third clue what it was... but it was gun making him guess what the present was...

So what great presents did you get?

Andrea

Well, I am now viewing this on my new 22" monitor. This thing is huge! It's going to take some getting used to. I also got a bracelet from Tiffany , a couple of magazine subscriptions, gift card and some odds and ends.
