We had a tree a bit like this in Newcastle last year. Apparently if you went near it with a mobile, it bluetoothed you something really cool.
ReplyDeleteThis one's a lot prettier though.
That's a fun idea. I don't think ours does anything that exciting. It's pretty at night, but it's average during the day. I'm a traditionalist - I like a tree that actually has some resemblance to a pine tree.
ReplyDeleteWe have one in Martin Place that is average by day, too. The blue-toothing sounds good.
ReplyDeleteThis tree has fascinated me since my fiance sent me a snap of it a couple of years ago. I'm happy to see it captured someone else's interest too. Merry Christmas!
