Things I Never Knew I Needed... aka random sightings in airports

Things I never knew I needed

It's a funny thing, traveling through airports.  You're surrounded by people (great for people-watching!), and by stores.  You know that you don't want to add a single thing to your luggage to carry with you on the rest of your flight... but at the same time, you need to do SOMETHING to stay awake before boarding!  So, off you go to browse through the shops... and, as the shop owners are banking on, probably by at least a water or a candy bar.

Here are a couple of things I didn't know I needed... but would be great to have on hand, I'm sure.  (Or, maybe not...)

In a place where we just can't get fir trees, this seems like a great deal!  It's already prelit, and would look totally natural in the environment here, I'm sure. :)

Ok, I have a couple of techie friends that I'm sure would get a kick out of this... but really?  There are enough bugs around Africa without getting computerized ones you can control!
Guess where?  Amsterdam, of course!  The (other) land of tulips, wooden shoes, and windmills galore.  I SO wanted to buy some cheese and sausage (seriously bad cravings!) but continuously reminded myself that it would be cheaper when I got home. 
Cheese graters... with a Dutch girl in costume on top.  This would definitely come in handy if I ever moved back to Holland, MI... or if I wanted to smile and be reminded of my "other" home!
