Happy Holidays with Camels

We had a very traditional Christmas, with camels!
And donkeys.
And goats. Look, I got the goats to pose for a picture! The artificial intelligences just told me that the baby Jesus had sheep, not goats, but whatever.
Even more traditional, we were in the land of frankincense, below. But it's just a fragrant resin for incense. Not an ideal baby gift, but easily exchangeable? Unlike Bahraini dinars in Singapore.
Here's a wise man we could ask?
Gold is more practical. Here is what I'm asking for from Barry.
He suggested golden light-up reindeer instead.
So I gave him a gift of upgraded Christmas eve cheese fondue.
Anyway, let's see what you can find in the Manama Souq.
Festive clothing:
Festive footwear: Spuer and Adios brands.
The spices are amazing! I learnt about black (dried/fermented) limes, and why they should be in my life.
Cinnamon the size of umbrellas, and festive pasta!
We didn't go to the homeland this year, but we toured the Canadian coffee trio.
Hoping that Singapore Tim Hortons increases their donut selection. It was nearly 3x larger here. Which is still only the selection at the average Canadian gas station.
