Travel Day Shave Mon 23 Dec 2024
Djunior's fever is gone and we're finally leaving for the mountains, snow, and family time 🥳 ⛷️🛷☃️🏔️
I enjoyed this last straight razor shave for a while with the butter smooth Dandy and the cookie-comfort Haverford trickhole. I'm ready for Christmas now.
Very happy to hear that Djunior will be well for Christmas! My favorite Christmas memories are from when our kids were young. Unlike many, I loved staying up and building those toys that required assembly.
Thanks! It's the first Christmas where Djunior's has also make presents for the other family members, so he's extra excited. It's really cute!
Safe and happy travels! Hope you'll have a nice snowy vacation ☃️
Oh yeah, knee-deep fresh snow on top of old snow. Well built some serious snow men and fortresses 🥳
Kinda jealous of the Winter Wonderland you describe there, over here it's a windy, rainy and dirty mess again. 😮💨
Yeah, it's picture book winter here, it's hard to beat 😅
I hope a bit of Glühwein or Lumumba will get you over the rain and wind! Merry Christmas!
Understandable, I just saw a documentary about the Yukon in winter - that was kinda great to see.
Thanks! I actually did with a glass of wine and a tiny cup of "Goldwasser". Have to work tomorrow too. Merry Christmas to you and your family too! 🌲
Bon voyage!
Merci! 😊
