Joyeux Noël!
Just a quick note for all my dear readers today.
We’re gearing up for our little 3-person Christmas Eve, with risalamande already made, the pantry full and Christmas music in full swing. Our nisser have been pacified, and Santa will soon be on his way. We’ll be following him as usual on the Norad Tracker, looking out for his sleigh as he passes Jupiter and Saturn in the sky, and checking for presents as they drop. It’ll be a quiet night, and perhaps not the Christmas we expected to celebrate, but I’m thankful we are all together and I think it’ll be a good one.
It’s been quite a year, and I know that many of you are celebrating alone tonight, or are separated from family and friends. I hope that you are all able to find some love, companionship & joy, despite distance and pandemic times. And I wish everyone a new beginning in 2021 with hopefully more time together in the real world, the ability to travel and explore, good health, and the blossoming of all your dreams.
So from our house to yours, I send you the best of wishes this Christmas Eve of 2020 with love, virtual hugs and a kiss from Polly.
Merry Christmas, Joyeux Noël, Glædelig jul, Feliz Navidad, and Happy Holidays to all!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Merry Christmas Nina and Paul, Paul’s dad and the 12 paws. 2020 will never be forgotten even though we would like to. But hope springs eternal and 2021 will hopefully be a much different year. I so enjoy your posts. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us.
Et tu! Merci 🙂
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to all of you. Thank you for brightening my world with your beautiful words. You are a joy to the world.
Thanks Nina. It’s been a year to remember, or more like try to forget I suppose. Merry Christmas from what will likely be a very green Christmas here in Burlington, Ontario.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Nina, Paul, Polly and family.
Hoping everyone’s Ne w Year is at the least 1/2 way better than 2020. I have enjoyed your pictures and writing for years now. I love the adventure details.
Thank you!
Merry Christmas Nina, Paul, Nina’s Dad and Polly
We are grounded from our full time RV travels since March but embracing a Canadian winter while we enjoy wonderful memories of the past and look forward to new beginnings in 2021. I don’t always comment, but I always look forward to and read your weekly blog. Thank you for sharing, caring and keeping us all updated. We have discovered so many wonderful locations thanks to you.
Joyeux Noel to you and your family and Best Wishes for good health and many happy days in 2021 ♥️
Merry Christmas to you and all of your loved ones, two and four legged!! I will be adopting a little dog soon and will consider her to be my best Christmas present. Good health to all.
Feliz Natal e Bom Ano Novo to you all.
Thank you, Nina! This has been quite the year! I do appreciate the new perspective of your blog. And like you, feel the age that this year brought on so suddenly. We lost one of our copilots in September and our other one is getting quite old and has cancer….Buddy keeps loving life, however, and he brings us joy every day. We settled down, and I cleaned out our rig yesterday. I am very melancholy over the loss of travel and the weight that homeownership brings. On the other hand… I bought some seeds for my garden and am making a comfortable new nest. Some new things to look forward to.
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thank you for the heartfelt and honest posts this year. It is a gift to be allowed into someone’s heart in this way when we are so separated.
Merry Christmas Nina, Paul, Nina’s Dad and Polly, Thank you for writing your blog. Reading it helps me to escape my reality! Wishing you a very healthy 2021!
Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year to you and yours also. May we all have a better 2021!
Merry Christmas to you all as well…… Thanks for all your writings.
And…Merry Christmas to you and family.
Thank you for your inspiring messages throughout the year!
Merry Christmas to you from Caryl and Chuck Powers in Great Falls, Montana. Stay safe and healthy.
Thank you, Nina. And a beautiful Christmas to you, Paul, dad and sweet Polly. Love reading your posts. Your writing and pictures are the best.
Merry Christmas Nina and Paul (and Dad),
Just wanted to wish you a wonderful and relaxing Christmas and New Year, and to say thank you for all of the amazing effort you put into your writing and updates! It truly has been one of the the most lovely things to look forward to each fortnight / month, and I do so hope you will continue your wonderful tales for many years to come!
We have had to postpone the pickup of our our brand new Le Voyaguer motorhome this year due to the virus, and it almost seems hard to believe that we will ever actually get to start our long p,Anne’s travels…but we are hopeful with the new vaccine developments that perhaps we will be able to travel to Tours in March to do the commissioning, and then, sometime after that we hope to be in your area and with luck perhaps we will finally be able to meet in person. Until then, we wish you all the best. With warmest regards, Sarah and Peter Wright
Merry Christmas to you, Paul and Polly and Dad! Thanks for giving us a glimpse of your life across the pond.
Merry Christmas from our house in north Texas to yours in France. May the new year bring you happiness, prosperity; good health and maybe eventually things back to semi-normal. Love to all.
A blessed Christmas to you and your family. Here’s to 2021 … whatever it may bring.
Merry Christmas to you all! Appreciate all of your exquisite writing and beautiful photography. Wishing you the best 2021 from the southern Appalachian Mountains.

It’s been a very tumultuous year, what with the pandemic and political “pestilence”; but, the New Year holds much promise for all. Looking back I am very thankful for the gifts you’ve given us throughout the year – your thoughts, perspectives, beautiful photos, and the sharing your trials and tribulations With us – your extended correspondence-family.
