Christmas Eve in Yemen

There is some concession to Christmas on the project, although the significance of Bethlehem is downplayed. Still, the management sprung for a lobster cookout on the beach. I played the Nutcracker on the car stereo for a number of Yemeni passengers on the drive over, and they pretended to enjoy the Arabian dance. A mixed group: Indian, Azerbajahni, Welch, Yank. You guess.
