It's advent for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

...and so every day between now and Christmas I'll be bringing you some scenes of what they are getting up to during advent.

Today Marta is helping Matthias put up the Christmas decorations. She puts the last bauble on the tree.

Oh.sad face. I see Yumiko has beaten me to it. Never mind. there’s always next year. I will console my self with a glass of blue wine.

I guess the weight of the cake to be 5gms.

Oh yes, do all guess the weight of the cake! I'll get it out and weigh it later, so I can award a virtual prize for the closest guess.

It's the weekend, so lots of people are out enjoying the snow. Kazuo has taken Akira and his friend Karl out skiing.

Karl takes a tumble!

But he is soon back on his feet, and joins Akira at the bottom of the hill.

Meanwhile Gerhard and Frauke are having skiing lessons with Christoph, who is dressed up as a bear!

Christoph supervises as the children ski through the teddy bear arch.

Greta and Moritz love skiing!

Greta glides to a stylish finish!

It's also perfect conditions for snowboarding. Renate has taken her daughter Johanna and friend Gustav out.

They are all enjoying the snow!

Henri is also out on the slopes.

He is joined after a little while by Lindsey.

Lindsey and Henri are very competent snowboarders. The Playmo people have had a lot of fun in the snow today!

I very much like Christoph's bear outfit. This should be compulsory for all ski instructors.
It might even tempt me to ski never going to happen

Slopes are busy today!

All that fluffy snow and blue skies!

I love Christoph's bear outfit - at first glance I was wondering if he was a real bear on the slopes, glad to see he's just dressing up😄

Guess the weight of the cake - I'd say 5.5gms 🍰

Hmm, my scales will only weigh things in whole grams, so the people might need to round up or down their guesses for the weight of the cake!

Christoph dressed up as a bear is brilliant 😄 I've never skied. I like to admire people skiing instead. Lovely scenes today. Thank you @SoMuchToBits 🌟

Guess the weight of the cake: 4.6g 🍰

Corrected to 4g after seeing your latest message 😊

The cut off time for guess the weight of the cake will be 6 pm (UK time). Then I'll award the virtual prize!

Ooh. A competition. My guess is 5.1g.
