76 days until Xmas

At the time of our postings, there were 78 days to Christmas in the US and 77 days to Christmas in NZ. I think you aren't counting partial days. On the Dec 20th, one says it's five days to Christmas.

    Actually one tells one's children: "it is five sleeps until Christmas" so gaps between pickets is more appropriate than pickets in this case. ;)
