It's here.

Craciun (Christmas) is here
There is a giant blow up Mosh Craciun (Santa Clause) hanging out on a monument in front of the mayor's office.
There are three different sized christmas trees with various levels of blinking lights in front of the aforementioned building.
My host family man, Ciprian, put up their Christmas lights yesterday...but then Gabi, his wife, didn't like his arrangement of them, so he is redoing the lights today.
All my fifth graders are way excited about putting their shoes out on Friday night for St. Nicholas to fill them with goodies (Saturday is St. Nicholas day).
I am teaching my students Jingle Bells, which they mostly know already, but once we get past the "jingle bells" line and sing "oh what fun it is to ride..." their voices become confused and they sound cacophonous.
