Jan. Musings after feast of Holy Kings in Spain

Over Christmas I was thinking about the three wise mens visit to the newborn "saviour" on the 6th of Jan.Two things:
1)What kind of father and husband was Joseph that would leave his wife in a stable and his son in a crib for nearly two weeks. Could he not get a descent B&B.Come to think of it there were probably safer in the stable than an HSE hospital in Belfast.
2) What kind of wife was Mary that would greet such illustrious visitors in a filty stable. She should have at least Hoovered the floor and but the animals outside.
