Well you think in a society that is overwhelming Muslim that I would be able to escape the trappings of a Christian Christmas. No such luck. Yesterday in the Blue Cafe the staff were busy setting up a Christmas tree. All the trimmings were brand new and it was clear from the looks on the faces of those decorating the tree that the purpose of some of the baubles were puzzling.
The main Christian church for the city is not far away so maybe they were just appealing to those customers. Jesus is also respected Muslim prophet - that might be the link.
In reality I had the overwhelming impression I had was that they just thought it was pretty.
