A Big day in Sweden
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008
Hi readers!
Today is a big day here in Sweden, first of all its Valborgsmässo Afton that is Walpurgis Night in English. It a one of the main Swedish holiday. We welcome the spring by singing spring songs and lighting a large bonfire. It’s a very beautiful holiday.
Today is also the Swedish kings birthday, people show up at the castle in Stockholm and celebrate his birthday. We gave the kids in kindergarten ice cream and told them it was from the king.
I just came home from a bonfire near my house, usually people go out partying tonight but am to tired so I rather stay home and watch Walpurgis celebration on TV.
Kisses
