Advent Calendar

A Fire-Engine-Red Tugboat

Plan B of this Advent calendar turned out to be very British Columbia. One can see such tugboats on local rivers and along the coastline.

This year’s Advent calendar for Klaus was supposed to be an old toy pickup truck big enough to hold 24 small chocolates. But I was not able to find one that met my size and taste requirements. But then I found this most gorgeous fire engine red tugboat at a Christmas fair. It’s made of wood and crafted locally. I fell in love with it!

The tugboat is from Jalu Toys in Powell River, Canada
