Christmas at Belvedere Palace


Oh no,
I lost my marbles list!

Angels at Play
Es hat sich halt eröffnet
Das himmlische Tor,
Die Engelein die kugelten
Ganz haufenweise vor.
Die Bubele die Madele,
Die schlagen Putzigagele,
Bald hin und bald her,
Bald rüber schier, bald nüber schier,
Das gefällt uns gar so sehr.

  2. What a lovely tree against all those carvings. The rich and subtle color combination of the mellow stone and gold ornament is delightful.

  8. Awesome photos as always! This time of year is my favourite with the evergreens dressed up for the holiday season. The sparkles glinting off gold ornaments. Sigh.
