CHIRISTMAS EVE IN FLORIDA

Christmas Eve in Florida ~ so different than up north. Today only a light jacket was needed; the sun was out all day. We started out the day with breakfast, very good home cooking.  Then our road lead to Winter Park. The Morse Museum was our first stop.  The majority of this museum contains the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany, and it was amazing!
Unfortunately photos were not allowed.  
When I thought of Tiffany I thought of lamps and some jewelry.  My eyes were opened viewing the work of this great artist.  He did complete walls, mirrors, lamps, jewelry, windows and various other objects.  
Not all flat glass workings/many were dimensional.   

The most fantastic display was the Tiffany Chapel.  I took a picture of the black and white picture but it does not do it justice.  The colors, the glass and stone work are absolutely breathtaking. 
This is a full size chapel, the columns on the sides are very ornate.  The chandelier is 10' by 8', electrified and 1000 pounds, shaped like a cross and magnificent!

One of my favorite VW vehicles ~ and in great shape too!

A skating rink in Winter Park.  Not too cold, but cold enough under the ice to keep it frozen.  Skate rentals available. 

Fountains, vines, flowers ~ all through the this pretty, little town. 

Never know who'll be flying around the corner, on a motorcycle!

A turtle with packages on his back.  His name was Randall/owned by a woman that rescued him on the side of the road. 

Not a cow ~ this is a dog!
Dalmatian/Great Dane mix? 


Merry Christmas to All
