Of Christmas trees and red noses

Downtown San Jose has been spruced up for Christmas, and Papa-Mummy took me along today to watch the decorations. It was really exciting. There were all these Xmas trees decorated brilliantly. Carousels and Ferris wheels had been set up. Elves were busy at work in the various floats. There were lots of balloons, candy canes and lights. There was even a snow machine blowing snow. It was lovely!

Alas, the excitement was all a bit too much. Papa-Mummy had left me unstrapped in my stroller to more easily pick me up, so seizing my opportunity I jumped at a balloon. Unfortunately I missed and took a headlong dive onto the pavement.

I ended up bruising my nose, but Papa-Mummy were really scared and rushed me to the Emergency Room. The doctor pronounced my health okay and my adventurousness firmly on track.

In the end, I returned from the hospital with little more hurt than a red nose and dented pride.
