Purchasing Christmas ornaments is one of my favorite shopping experiences while traveling. I enjoy picking out just the right keepsake to remind me of the trip. It’s about the only shopping that I do, except for jewelry—poor Alan.
On those years when I decorate for Christmas, memories of travel come rushing back to me as I unpack the ornaments. Hanging them on the tree is a physical reminder of special trip memories.
I love the holidays so much that I’d be happy to decorate more than one tree. A small travel themed Christmas tree to hold just travel ornaments would be a fun addition to my kitchen.
There are some Christmases when I know I’ll be traveling. But I still like to have a little bit of holiday spirit around until the trip starts. A small Christmas tree filled with travel ornaments would be perfect!
Sometimes, I don’t find the right ornament during my trip, like on my visit to Glacier National Park. That’s when online shopping saves the day. I browse the selections to fill in the missing ornaments in my collection.
