Christmas Fair At Onafhankelijkheidsplein In Paramaribo

Hello Story Time friends, it's my pleasure to be writing to you again from the warm tropics of the island of Suriname. In the new year, I visited the Christmas Fair at Onafhankelongoingplein, which was still ongoing. Onafhankelijkheidsplein means independence square. In the heart of Paramaribo, right across the Presidential Palace, you'll find our Surinamese Independence Square. Each year a Christmas tree is placed on the Onafhankelijkheidsplein to spread the holiday cheer. This year they went all out with the Christmas Decorations! When I drove by the new year barely started. But that didn't stop the crowds from gathering. I was no different and had to get a few shots to share with you guys. I asked someone else to take pictures for me but none of them came out well.👀😓😂 They do say that not everyone has the eye for it. Once I took out my Nikon D3300 people probably thought that I was a photographer working there.😅😂 That happens often whenever I pull out my filming equipment. But in the spirit of the New Year, I ended up taking some shots of the families spending time at the fair. You could clearly see that the transformation from the park to the many fairgrounds' mile was filled with kids' faces. There were reindeer, snowmen, and giant Christmas ornaments all around. Although at the word or the word in English. 😂 So you'll hear me saying 'Christmas balls' a lot in my vlog. Switching languages, English and all the others, confuses me. If you are a bilingual person like me, you'll understand the struggle. Horses were giving the children a ride around Onafhankelijkheidsplein. Some stands were selling food and there was even a merry-go-round! My inner child could only imagine how much fun the kids were having going on the carousel. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this vlog I made for you. This is what a random New Year's night in Suriname looks like. If you are new to my blog, don't forget to subscribe!
