Skywatch Friday - Xmas Tree

Every year since 1947 a Christmas tree like this one stands in Trafalgar Square. A gift from Norway in friendship and gratitude for the support during WWII. Decorated in traditional Norwegian style with 500 white lights. The tree from the forests around Oslo is always 20-25ft tall.
Take time to visit other skywatchers around the world.
