There was only one year I didn’t drive home for Christmas, and what a miserable time it was, for several reasons. So I won’t think about not being home at this family time, but I will think of all the times I did drive home, at first alone, and later with husband and children, home to a wonderful warm welcome and a jolly and festive few days ahead!
We are at home this year, our own home, and have been for several years since my parents died, but a friend is driving to be with us, so safe journey to him!

yes, I understand exactly what you are saying. This transition has happened to us. We have now become the place where epople are driving home to. Its a great pleasure and honour to be so. Happy Christmas.
