Happy Chanukkah and Festive Seasons to all!


Well onto my latest post. I wanted to also post a picture of a Dreidel and a Chanukkaya which is a menorah with space for nine candles. Why nine candles you might well ask if you know that there are 8 days of Chanukkah? Well the ninth candle is the Shamesh or candle that is used to light the others because you are unable to use the candles for anything but to remember the miracle of Chanukkah.
This is a sunrise in a country NSW town. I want to try and get a sunrise picture in Melbourne too one day. I doubt it will have the colours of this picture but sunrise is a lovely time to be up.
