Great to meet Aladdin the Camel and learn about the Christmas tradition at Mount Vernon! We visited there once in the spring and had a great time seeing the garden area and the farm animals too. Interesting fact that they found this mentioned in an old ledger and brought this tradition to life! 😄👍👍🎄🎄❤💚

[@MemawsMatters]

Happy holidays! Yes history is an amazing thing isn't it Jennifer? I always wonder what we don't know about the history of places and people when visiting places like Mount Vernon. It's so fun to look into that. Thanks for watching my friend.
