Dreaming of a White Christmas

<sub>I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

(Irving Berlin, 'White Christmas'</sub>



Although it's one of the most popular Christmas songs, I'll always feel very sentimental about it. It makes me wish for the joyous, peaceful Christmas from my childhood. Especially Diana Krall's version warms my heart very effectively.

And this image, though already two years old, reminds me of the most happier times in my life. When I used to visit this pretty little town in the mountainside more than once a month (but now haven't been there for such a long time). In Krynica, December was always pure magic, especially before Christmas, when there weren't many tourists. I wish I could travel there back in time, just for a night.
