Christmas is in the air and new year is just around the corner. It's that time of the year again when shoppers around the world are pampered with sales and discounts. In Bandung that salvo was shot last week with - among others - the midnight sale program held over the weekend at
Paris Van Java.
Santa was not there by the way. He was probably too busy with all the invitations he is receiving from many parts of the world. So the good bees were here in his stead.
And these snowmen did not seem to mind taking care of all the gifts that the bees had brought in.

Ha, I like your choice of the word "salvo"!
It is so refreshing to see delivery bees instead of reindeer and snowmen instead of Santa. Something new yet still giving the idea of holiday cheer.
A respite for the crisis...when I watch your picture, and the crowd in our department stores !
Surprised that for Christmas Bandung goes western! Thanks for sharing, Eki!
Have a very merry Christmas (I'm certain there will be good food:) )
Oh my goodness, what a fun way and place to get some presents.
OK, this is interesting because if I'm busy during the day, I can still shop at midnight.
haha, frosty the snowmen looks adorable! ^0^ and tell me about the shopping and the people! they're just everywhere! i hope you bought your gifts already to avoid the rush...^0^
How funny that a country in the tropics should feature snowmen. Surely no-one there has ever built one?
It’s that time of year again! I’m doing the rounds and apologising for my complete failure to more regularly offer comment on everybody’s incredible efforts for the year. I know how hard it can be to keep up with the daily grind of everyday posting, and want to thank you for your efforts.
I especially want to wish festive greetings for all from down here at [nearly] the end of the world, the bottom of Tasmania.
