Glass blowing factory

This is just an extra shot of the two girls whom I took to Solidarity Day last weekend. Ronnie had a birthday party and I was secretly grateful to just deal with two.

We didn't end up buying much but it was fun anyway, if much smaller than in past years.

Sunday we went to lunch at the Hilton and then drove up to Northern Alsace to visit a glass blowing factory. The kids enjoyed watching them make Xmas balls.

We bought a vase and a dish, plus a paperweight for Ronnie, a dolphin for Davina and a swan for Talia.
