Christmas Eve In Brussels..........

The Hatefi family celebrates Christmas on the night of the 24th so there was lots of activity in the house yesterday.  Dinner was a leg of veal and a stuffed duck so, as usual, the food is fabulous.

There were 16 for dinner with conversations in many different languages.  It's actually fun, listening as words are translated from one to another.  English is the last language so I've often wondered if I was getting the actual statement (likely an abbreviated version).  Several people speak English so I always have someone to talk to.

Tonight we're adding family from Berlin and Hamburg so, now, German will have to be included.

Shown in the photos is Roger's sister, Afran, and his brother, Khorsoro.
