Yuletide Cheer Appears At the Sheraton Imperial

The years just pass by in the blink of an eye.  It is always bittersweet retrospection at year end, as we come to a close of yet another year.  Every December, I would switch music selection to play Christmas songs, and by the end of December, would be well and truly overdosed.  Better that than being overdosed with Christmas rich foods I suppose.

While I personally have never really subscribed to the whole Christmas tree thing, I am amazed by the effort people and institutions go through to doll up this humble pine.  Lest I sound like an old cynic, I have to qualify that there is something festive about the whole tree thing, and I am sure it forms an indelible part of many people's Christmas memories of growing up etc.

This year, quite a few hotels have had an official lighting of their Christmas trees, and Sheraton Imperial KL was the only one I managed to attend.  A beautiful tree adorned the lobby area of the hotel, but was yet unlit when I arrived.


The unlit tree - waiting to see the light. 


This contraption is not for the mayor of Gotham to summon Batman, but for the lighting of the Christmas Tree by Hotel Manager, Kurt Vieren and the hotel’s Managing Director, Chuck Abbott.


The hotel also invited children of the Lighthouse Children Welfare Home Association to perform beautiful Christmas carols, and I have to say the kids looked so adorable and really gave a beautiful performance.

That is one hot sizzling tree!!!



Ciki, Cindy Yoong and me partaking in the Christmas goodies and wine.

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friends.
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
