Advent 2022: Day 17: Angelo and Aubrey

Aubrey: Are you ready for today's Advent prize, Angelo?
Angelo: Andiamo, amico mio!  Have at it!

Aubrey: I'm afraid I'll have to move the hot chocolate urn to get at the door.

Angelo: Santo cielo, what can this be?

Aubrey: It is a mess, but I think we can solve it.
Angelo: Molto bene!

Angelo: Un albero di Natale!  A Christmas tree!  Magnifico!

Aubrey: I'm just sorry we had to move the other pieces to open the door.
Do you think we put them back in the right spot?

Angelo: Oh, amico mio, do not worry.  You are never in the same spot day-to-day, sì?
Every day, it is a new story.  Same with the people and things here;
they move about and the story, she changes and delights us anew.

Aubrey: You are very wise.
Angelo: Well, we Italians were inventing the filosofia when 
everyone else was still swinging from the trees.

Angelo is very "filisophical" The calendar is really shaping up!

Just what was needed a lovely Christmas tree!
Who knew Italians were so wise! or is it just Angelo?
