I saw it in December, because you’d mentioned it here on Bluesky. I was in Dubai for the holiday and made it a priority to get to Abu Dhabi to see this. Thank you so much.

You haven’t lived until you’ve bargained for Christmas trees in old Satwa, a working class district of Dubai that remains mostly undeveloped. And the trees are pricier because they’re from Canada not Pakistan.
