When we were in Boston we looked in the window of the Christmas shop.
It always seems strange to look at Christmas ornaments in warm summer weather, but it is interesting to see the different styles of decorations available.
There were a variety of ornaments based on the Nutcracker soldier figures - here a very patriotic Uncle Sam and several figures in modern military dress.
But what is that at the back?? Have a closer look..
A 'Merman' ornament - one of a large series it turns out - some large decorations like this and some for hanging on the Christmas tree. I have never seen anything quite like it for Christmas!!
I looked online and amongst the many available there is a British one..
I shan't be putting one of those on my list.
