Fun fact: Aladdin never actually had a flying carpet in the original story. One Thousand and One Nights does include a story with a magical teleporting carpet, but it didn’t really fly.
King Solomon had a flying carpet in some legends, but it was hundreds of square miles, and was sometimes ridden by tens of thousands of people at once. More of a flying city, at that point.

It doesn’t fly until you wrap, knot, and trim the tassels.

Better than a broom; you can take a friend along. And no DUI’s.

I wish they had those activity books when I was a kid. Connect the dots and find the differences were the short cut to boredom.

This is the one time I’ve seen that getting “called on the carpet” might not be a bad thing.

With my luck, one of my cats will have pissed on it right before my flight (only because they love me and want me to think of them wherever I go).
