Christmas
The castle actually went all out this year for Christmas and I was quite shocked. I mean I wake up one morning to a knock on my bedroom window...to find Navi there. And she points downward and there stands Link with a freshly cut down tree. He was all waving up at me..so I dressed and headed down to the common area. He brought the needle-falling thing right where I was which upset the maids and such. But yeah, we got the ornaments, set the tree in the middle of the common area, and decorated it with everything we could think of. The Zoras donated shells from the bottom of Lake Hylia, the gorons glass-fired ornaments from the depths of Death Mountain, and the Kokiri decorated with holly leaves and -true- forest garland. We topped it off with a bright shiny star and some candles sold in the market place. We all dressed in our finest and had a Christmas party the other day. Marth and Roy showed up with gifts and we sat them under the tree. Marth's was rather light, but had a ringing sound when you shook the box. Roy's, however was heavy and hardly made a sound when you shook it. So I can only imagine what they have brought. Many thanks to them. Link dressed in his Goron tunic and wore a santa hat, so he looked quite festive. Then he chased me around with mistletoe for a good 3 hours until I finally tore it from his hands. Almost everyone from around joined us in the party...some Gorons, some Zoras, especially Ruto and her father. Saria and Mido also joined us and made the music of the evening. I've always loved the style of the Kokiri music. Their culture is fascinating to me and their music is even more so. We finally joined to sing Christmas carols and such...then Link and a few others decided to go door to door in Kakariko village to sing more carols. He was always much more festive than me. But yes, Christmas is looking to be rather plentiful this year, and everyone is well of health. Which is always a good thing, I suppose. But yeah...Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and all of that cheer.
