Christmas day winter wonderland

The famous Winter Wonderland Christmas song was first published in 1934. The composer was Felix Bernard (1897-1944) and the lyricist was Richard B. Smith (1901-1935). Probably the most popular versions of this classic Christmas song, Winter Wonderland, were recorded to high acclaim by the Andrews Sisters and Perry Como.

Here are some verses of the lyrics:

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening, In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, We’re happy tonight.
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Gone away is the bluebird, Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, As we go along, Walking in a winter wonderland.
In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is Parson Brown…

Christmas day winter wonderland

Christmas day can be a very meaningful day,  for most people in the western world that means time spent with the family and friends. What is your Christmas day like, do you spend the time with your family and friends.

Christmas day winter wonderland without snow

Christmas day winter wonderland without snow can be a disappointing experience,  and it does happen to more people than one would imagine.  Even in countries like Finland that is traditionally known as a winter wonderland and the home of Santa in the Arctic circle, does not mean that there is always snow in the Southern parts of Finland. That was exactly what happened for Christmas 2015.  There was no snow in the South and no snow on the West coast of Finland.  Here is a short video to who what Santa got up to on the West Coast of Finland on the Christmas Day 2015.
