Seeing as there is no Thanksgiving holiday this week, Christmas got kicked off a bit early for us here in Dunfermline. We have traditionally enjoyed taking the kids down to the tree-lighting ceremony back home in Sebastopol, and figured we shouldn't miss the local version this season. We hit a local chippy for supper, and then made our way down to "The Glenn" to check out the celebration. Huge crowds lined the streets and High Street was rockin' as the Song Kings performed Motown hits prior to the arrival of Mr. Claus. The parade included war veterans, motorcycles, student groups, pipe bands, and of course Santa himself. All in all it was a fun way to start the holiday season and we're looking forward to our Scottish Christmas.

| There were some radio personalities from Kingdom FM there to MC the ceremony. |

| "Sammy the Tammy", mascot for the Pars, was also there to fire up the crowd. |
