Happy Saudi national day!



Yesterday was Saudi Arabia's national day, commemorating the unification of the Kingdom in 1932. As it fell on a Friday (weekend for us), the King was very generous and gave us today (Saturday, normally the first day of the week) off! How cool is that? 
Obviously the roads were very busy yesterday, many people had adorned their cars with green Saudi flags, and the malls were absolutely crowded! It was nice though, as many kids and young men were wearing green shirts / thawbs / wigs / make up! (It would almost feel like St. Patrick's day!) And on top of that, there were National Day offers!

Can you figure out what all these green heart-shaped balloons are?


Let's have a closer look:
