Christmas in Egypt

Celebrating Christmas in Egypt is an interesting experience. There is no Christmas muzak everywhere you go, no Santas on street corners or in malls, and even just finding a Christmas tree or decorations can be a bit of a challenge. We managed to find ourselves a cute, fake 2 1/2 foot tree, though.
I am looking forward to our Carol Service at church on Christmas Eve. Normally by this time, I've heard Away in a Manager adnauseum, so that I'm just about 'carol-ed out', but it is quite refreshing living here to not hear them all around, all the time.
Getting into the Christmas spirit.
