Buffalo, Day 8: Of Candlelight and Carols

My parents' church now shares its space with a Korean church, and tonight they held a joint candlelight service, with the groups trading off parts.

By far the strangest moment came when the Korean choir performed part of "The First Noel" in Korean.  Consider that -- a French carol, partially translated first into English, and then on into Korean.  I had a momentary flashback to my time on the boat, and the Chinese wedding band doing strange Engrish covers of Western songs.

Less than twelve hours until the Great Voght Clan Christmas Dinner Extravaganza (or at least what remains of it.)  It's my first time back for it in three years.
