The Christmas tree at the top of Mount Scenery.

SABA--This past weekend, a Christmas tree was placed at the top of Mount Scenery – at 877 metres (m), the highest point in the Dutch Kingdom.

On Saturday, December 14, six persons climbed Mount Scenery with a Christmas tree, with the roots still attached. Climbing 1,060 steps with a tree that measured about 4.5m in height and weighed some 50 kilos was no easy task.

The small group also brought a pick and two shovels, as well as the decorations for the tree, and a Saba flag. A hole was dug at the top, in which the tree was placed.

Saba wishes everyone in the Kingdom very happy holidays and a healthy 2020.
