Today is the fourth day of Christmas. Here’s the final Christmas card from my recent winter vacation in the Cotswolds. This post was first published on The Travel Memoir.

A view of fresh powdered snow from the warmth of the dining room in the little cottage we stayed in during our winter vacation in the Cotswolds in the United Kingdom. This photo was taken with a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra smartphone.
It had not snowed in the Cotswolds for a few years now so it was a pleasant surprise to see the neighbourhood blanketed with snow when we woke up one evening.
As a result, we got to see a side of the Cotswolds not usually experienced by tourists – a winter wonderland of charming cottages nestled in a snowy landscape.
