Christmas Eve

With Natalie's father already settled into London for his Christmas visit, we waited for the arrival of my father and sister, Janelle. They flew in early on Christmas Eve. Due to the limited number of days they have in town it was agreed that we would pack a lot in.

In the afternoon six of us went to the Christmas Carols concert at the Royal Albert Hall. This was performed by the Mozart Festival Chorus and the Mozart Festival Orchestra (dressed in period costume).

It was a really good concert with lots of opportunities for the audience to sing, a visit from Santa, and some great orchestral and choral Christmas music performed on stage.

Following the concert we traveled up into town to see the Regent Street lights.

It was a very long day for us all but a great lead into Christmas.
