O come, let us adore him…
Our hotel room looked directly out on Leeds Cathedral. On Christmas morning the bells rang out, inviting us to celebrate a special birth. I hope you had a beautiful time, too. Happy Six Word Saturday!

You had me confused as I didn’t realise that Leeds had a cathedral. My home town of Wakefield does and I have spent a few Christmas eves singing there. So I had to look this up and find that this is in fact a Catholic cathedral, dedicated to St Anne. Looks nice and there is nothing better than listening to church bells ringing. Hope you had a lovely time with your boy, travel problems not withstanding.

It’s 5 minutes to the Cathedral one way and 5 minutes to James the other. A lovely day overall 🤗💕

Oooh, I didn’t know Leeds Parish Church had been promoted though there was talk of it when we lived there. My son was a boy chorister there back in the day. A very special sound, those treble voices.

Die Glocken am Weihnachtsmorgen waren sicher eine feierliche Zeremonie. Ich hätte da auch mit gesungen.
Unsere Familie hat am heiligen Abend nach dem Essen im Lichterglanz des Baumes Weihnachtslieder gesungen. Als Schlusspunkt habe ich noch zwei Spirituals gesungen und mich dabei auf der Gitarre begleitet. 🙂 😉
