Sankta Lucia

Sankta Lucia Celebrations in Sweden!

Tomorrow is Sankta Lucia Dag. Saint Lucia Day. Time for Lussekatter, Glögg, Pepparkakor, Coffee and waking up early to watch the television for the concert. Its a beautiful celebration of light and goodies! Today at work we had visitors from the Mechanical Engineering Department come and sing for us. The department also had a great morning fika, cofee break. I loved it! My first REAL Sankta Lucia Celebration.

Others at work were gone to watch their kids. Super cute! Here's a video of some kids doing the Luciatåg (Literally, Lucia Train) where they walk around and sing the Lucia Song. The second link is of older people singing really nice.
