How nice!!!!! It looks so relaxing and festive.

By the way, what exactly is a blockhouse? Did you rent it in the forest, or go hike to it, or is it a part of your home????

Hi Elly,
yes, it was very relaxing indeed.

This is a little wooden hut, without electricity, in the forest. You can rent it. It's free, you just have to give a small money donation to the forest ranger. All what you need (the wood for fire, food, drinks and so on) you have to bring by yourself.
We have a few such little huts here in our region. It's very popular, to celebrate birthdays or other parties in these "houses".

Here you can find a photo of another little hut http://my.opera.com/sternchen/albums/showpic.dml?album=130914&picture=2023195


By the way, Elly: I miss your own Christmas eve photo. You should upload it here, please! :idea:
