Merry Christmas from Syria

Merry Christmas from Syria, originally uploaded by CharlesFred.

Christmas Greetings from Fred and Charles to all our flickr and blogspot friends around the world.. We are now in Aleppo, enjoying the (short) trip to Syria, finding it a little bit difficult to find the time to connect to internet and upload photos.

There is a great Christmas atmosphere here in this land of religious tolerance and brotherhood. This photo was taken at the Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus, with a minaret in the background.
