Hello, I created this blog because Melbourne is my city and I want people to see what a beautiful place it is. So come with me on a journey of discovery as we traverse the dining precincts, the culture, the laneways and hidden gems that make Melbourne marvellous.

The Sounds of Christmas

Music is what feelings sound like These three young girls started playing yesterday outside the Healesville shopping centre and brought smiles to all who passed.

Each day from now until Christmas Day I will be posting something Christmas related and will include a (Youtube) video of some of my favourite Christmas carols. I hope you enjoy them as much as I like listening to them.

Today it is Il est né le Divin Enfant, a traditional French Christmas carol, the original words written in Latin by a Franciscan Priest in the XIIIth century, and sung by the children's choir, the Petits Chanteurs à la Croix de Bois.


Joyeux Noel.
