Oh, and before you head off up the mountain, you might want to try to figure out what's written on that advertising bilboard.
Have you managed to read the gift list at the center?
It can be hard when things are twirly. There are tools that can help!
It also helps to select the correct twirly area.

Depending on the image edit, some manipulations are reversible. Download and open the billboard image image in the online image editing tool Jingle Ringford recommends.
