And here is Sufjan Stevens and Mary watching the dancing, and then smiling for the camera. (They are a bit out of focus; I was excited by the donkeys).
Canada is amazing, particularly in its rural French parts!!!

I Go To A Local Fair
They are dancing! Also, there are farmers' wives making acrylic slippers, and a living nativity with a Jesus who looks like Sufjan Stevens, but with a beard.

I love donkeys, those ones are lovely!
I was at a church fete in Worthing last weekend. Their nativity had geese and chickens as well as a sheep (sadly they were donkeyless). I assume that the geese and chickens are only present in certain, less widely accepted, translations of the gospels. Mary was visibly shivering and at one point the young Joseph asked if he could hold a chicken for a while to warm up a bit. Tea towels very much in evidence too, of course. Marvellous.
Real donkeys? You get real ones? Although they seem to have scarpered. Probably wise of them. Joseph looks quite like a chorus teacher I once had although her beard was better, and that woman was vicious if the altos got out of key.
Also, I quite like baby Jeebus's discoliscious swaddling thing. Sort of says, dude, I might have a ginormous star poised over my head like the sword of Damocles and my parents might mistakenly have set up my manger-cradle as a miniature Cooper's Hill with me apparently cast as the cheese BUT I am the King of Kings damnit and this is my party. Yo. With bling.
rural French parts sounds suspiciously like naughty bits...
Seriously, is she supposed to be a virgin? She looks like a hag (a Quebecois one at that).
Joseph is so dating down.
I only care about the donkeys.
