gentino family christmas.
We celebrated Christmas together on Friday, and it was lovely. Gifts first thing, then fresh hot banana bread and coffee, a Skype date with Cathy, Annie and Pat, and everyone pitching in to make a Christmas dinner feast. After naptime we went to a favorite cafe for lattes, then had a picnic dinner of leftovers on the terrace, and pie and whipped cream for dessert!

palace tour.
The last stop of our trip was a tour of the palace. We had an hour-long tour of the inside of the palace (no photos allowed), then roamed the grounds. Afterwards, we stopped for lunch, then headed home. A good time was had by all!
