Christmas travel
by Ludmila Martinicka


Snow, white blanket everywhere you look, quiet piece, typical for the Christmas Eve, just the sound of the bell comes from the tower of the village church at the midnight. Nothing disturb slowly falling snow flakes, lonely snowmen stare to the dark but smile anyway. Nobody should be alone for Christmas. Christmas are holidays when the whole family meets in one room. Sometimes the only day per year, when people forget about their problems and arguments. In my family we use to quarrel quiet lot during the day of Christmas Eve. Everybody is nervous about how the evening will look like, if everything is prepared properly,... but in the evening we just stop and forget about it. Don't even think about it. It is like a long journey. Whole year everybody goes his own way and on December 24th we come back to the starting point again to share our experiences, joy of seeing each other, worries, delights, and, not on the last place, gifts. For my grandfather the biggest gift is our presence. He lives alone and each year he welcomes us at his place with supper he prepared by himself without helping hand of anybody else. I am proud of him and can't imagine to spend Christmas without him. I love to travel to see my family. Especially in Christmas time. Around my city, around my country and around Europe as well. At least this year it would be this way. Till the New Years Eve, which I am going to spend abroad. And then, another year will come, another time of exploring the world and looking forward for Christmas to meet my dears.
