Why is there a Roman centurion for Christmas?

Some sights on a stroll along in Orchard one week before Christmas. This year's deco and lights were kinda....mehhh. Did everybody start cutting back on the budget or what?

Theme for this year seems to be this family mascot with lotsa lotsa sweet and candies

Hmm...Moses must be in one of them

Dont understand the Romans involvement. Maybe I shld have gone up to take photo with the gal? Hmm....after all when I was in Rome, those bloodsuckers charged about 10 euros for a photo outside the Colisseum
