Merry Christmas Everyone!

So this morning, I woke up with the idea that I would love to see where people on steemit are today. So I decided to throw a photo contest.

To be eligible you need to include in your comments:

  • Where you are on this planet
  • A picture of where you are
  • A wish to other steemians for Christmas

The best photos will get a generous upvote in the comment section. The best of the best, will get a 100% upvote. (~$85) The contest ends on the night of the 25th of December.

The photo above is literally where I am right now. (and yes, it's an ice rink on the left) I'm in a beautiful place called Rigaud in Quebec, Canada. It's -15 Degree Celcius (5 Fahrenheit) and we are just getting ready to eat a big breakfast and go to church.

Wishing You and All Steemians a Merry Christmas Full of Joy, Hope and Family Time.

Christmas is the occasion to celebrate and glorify the year in an atmosphere of love and brotherhood and is a wonderful occasion to give ourselves some rest and family gathering and friends wish you a happy birthday!
I'm in a beautiful place in a wonderful city that is the city of Constantine called the City of the Hanging Bridges
The atmosphere is very cool snow and the sun reflects snow white
Really a wonderful place worth sharing with you

I am in my native Riga, in the Old Town. This is a town hall square, on which a Christmas tree and a very beautiful House of Blackheads. I'll walk here tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow - this beauty should be admired often!

I wish everyone on SteΠ΅ΠΌe a happy Christmas, and that your crypto currency will grow hundred times in the New Year!

Greetings from Riga. The christmas tree this year sucks. Look at Vilnius for example - they did it very beautifully just like always.

I have not been to Vilnius this year. But me and our Christmas trees like :) I today made a selection of Riga fir trees :)

Hehe. For me - they could've done a lot better. I like the new LIDO Christmas tree.

Beautiful Brooklyn, NY.

Wishing every Steemian a happy and healthy holiday!

Dear @cryptoctopus, thank you for this contest... I love the idea and told my kids ( who know all about steemit). They would love to make this entry. So my daughter made the sign for you. Our bird Nemo is also on the picture for you.

We wish you all a Merry Christmas.
I made this at our house in Holland. Tonight we have Christmas eve wit the family..

My wish is for all steemians to also look to others who maybe have not as many chances as we have. Do some good and you always get rewarded.
I also hoop you like my #steemcandle initiative

I'm in Alberobello, a nicely place in the south of Italy which is UNESCO World Heritage Centre! Have you ever heard about "Trulli"?

Merry Christmas to the Steemian Community, Christmas to me is all about family and friends, coming together and thinking of others. This photo was taken from my seat sat in a restaurant by the ChaoPhraya river in Bangkok, Thailand with my family. I didn't want to leave my Thai in-laws as they had lost two family members this year and I have tried to support them as much as I can. Try to think of others before yourself and I wish for all of your souls to be blessed at this wonderful time of year.

  3. I wish that the internal flexibility allows a person to penetrate into any life situations.

And in combination with perseverance and clear vision of the goal - this was a powerful tool for achieving your goal.

I wish that a person could feel himself and others.

Allow yourself (!) And others to make mistakes. And to be who they are.

Merry Christmas from sunny Arizona! It is 70 degrees here today and it's not uncommon to have flip-flop weather, even in the dead of winter!
This winter I want to express how grateful I am to have all of my family to celebrate Christmas with. My mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer a year ago, and I wasn't sure if I would be seeing her for another Christmas. I am, and I am so blessed, so Steemians, hug the people around you and be grateful for their presence in your lives! You never know how long you'll have them around!


(2 of my 3 babes. We decided to go to South Mountain as it's a beautiful day and a beautiful view!)

  3. My wish is that the snow and the cold are only external. And inside - there was peace. Inside it was joyful.

Inside - and in the house. And in the heart.
Merry Christmas! All good!

Very Good!

Where am I on this planet? In the lovely city of Ostend, Belgium. More specifically, I'm at the local airport meeting Minnie and Mickie Mouse!

It's not exactly snowy outside, but there's plenty of christmas spirit inside. My wish to other Steemians is a happy, joyful and amibitious 2018 and may all of your dreams come true!

Christmas is the season of giving, forgiving and love. The best Christmas is spent with your Family. I'm spending my Christmas with the love of my life, My Family. I'm @shellychelle03 from Philippines wishing my fellow Steemians a Christmas full of Joy. Merry Christmas to All.

Greetings from Port Townsend, Washington state, USA... where it's cloudy and about 0 degrees C/33 degrees F... the sky is gray and has that "looks like snow" appearance, but it's not forecast. Meanwhile, here's a picture from our deck, overlooking our backyard labyrinth... one of those rare moments where a light dusting of snow stayed on the grass but melted on the outline bricks:

To everyone in Steemitland, have a beautiful Christmas season and may you be surrounded by people you love and good cheer... and remember this, often the best things in life are not "things" but love and companionship! And last but not least, a happy and prosperous 2018 to ALL of us!

Hi all Steemians! I'm from Russia. The City Of St. Petersburg. At this moment I am in the Parking lot at the supermarket. Need time to do some shopping. We have a snow and a Blizzard. I am happy that I spent this year with You all. I send my greetings to You all corners of the world. I want to wish You all merry Christmas!!!

I'm currently in Apple Creek, OH with my wife's family. We're enjoying a cozy evening in their living room watching Christmas movies and enjoying time together. It just started snowing outside and is supposed to continue doing so most of the night, so we have a White Christmas to look forward to! I just took this picture of my stocking hanging from the mantle above the fireplace, with the Christmas tree in the background.

My wish for all Steemians is that they can treasure their time together with family and friends in the coming days. I would add that it can be really easy to just focus on superficial and happy thoughts over Christmas, but I encourage everyone to engage in genuine interactions in which you really connect with each other and go beyond surface level to forge stronger bonds and friendships. Hope everyone has a very merry Christmas!

Ready to midnight from Le Chef at the Manor Philippines.

Merry Christmas for all steemians

Reflections on Christmas Eve Sunday, December 24, 2017. With the break of dawn, bathed in rays of Sun, shines the morning, reborn hope, emerge feelings sublime found on those who Compartiran the Christmas dinner and the who departed to encounter God. Starts the frenzy of the preparedness of the family meeting, the advent of the Christ Child, the gifts, Los Estrenos, Christmas dinner, the carols, forgiveness and the unforgettable memories of those who are to the right hand of the Lord. Deep pain to not share with them. However, we look to our around, feel his spiritual presence, sprout tears, smiles, the hullabaloo is made present, arise hugs, the promises, predictions and yell with emotion: Merry Christmas to you and all your beloved beings. That God bless today, tomorrow and always with much love and affection. @extasispro (JosΓ© Calixto)

The city has opened a Christmas tree and it is very beautiful and wonderful!

I wanted to support the contest

The temperature is +20.
City: Nairobi.
Country: Kenya

Merry Christmas everyone. Going to be with our family here in Central Pennsylvania.

Sitting at home crypto'ing, watching cricket, eating pizza, steemit!

Hello & Merry Christmas
I am an independent Journalist that has been reporting on the Ukraine War, in anti Kiev- "Rebel" DPR/LPR territory for last almost 4 years( no other Western Journalist has been reporting here as long as I have).
I have just been on Steemit for 6 days. I am loving it so far. I am happy to be the first (as far as I can tell) independent War correspondent on Steemit and Dtube. Steemit seems like a great platform with alot of potential to help spread the word on the what is really happening in the Ukraine War & show the War crimes that have been happening in Donbass. The idea of people really help others with upvotes is amazing. I am happy to bring the breaking news on the Ukraine War to the community. I just need to get a following so any help you could give me to spread my reports I would appreciate. Thanks

Hit me up if you want to chat

I read this post 4 hours ago, was busy celebrating my friend's birthday. Once things settled down, I took out my iPhone 7 and captured some of the photos only for this contest. I'm not a good photographer though but I liked this one!

Happy Christmas to all :)

According to local tradition, "he should be arriving soon", so the 'baby Jesus' will be placed on the mantle once he is to be born.

Me (LOL) in front of The Fountain of The Lions in Ponce's downtown plaza with the famous local ice cream (this one is of peanuts, one of my favorites).

To everyone that celebrates this day may you enjoy a happy time with all your loved ones.

I came here to make a travel blog series which can be seen on my blog. I wanted to provide some good content.

I hope you are having a blast as well <3 Also I wanna wish you all a happy and joyful experience for the upcoming days.

Hopefully the spirit of giving touches this comment and my entry in your contest ^^
A 100% upvote would cover all my travel expenses as I went on a small budget and it will be hearth warming if I received one, yet sharing my experience with people gives me well enough joy.

Much love and best of wishes from Scotland !

ALSO MERRY CHRISTMASS TO U @CRYPTOCTOPUS

This is a nice idea man.
You really are a generous person.

I won't be entering the contest because I see so many in the comments who need that 85$ more than me. My Christmas wishes have already come true, but others are still hoping.

I hope all my fellow steemians have a very merry Christmas!
