Our advent candles. We lit the last candle today (Dec 24) since
we
are invited out on Christmas day.
No turkey or ham for Christmas but last Saturday we made our
first fondue.
Making fondue is traditionally a man's job, maybe like BBQ's in
USA?
Actually Christmas day we are invited to a family's home for
dinner,
I'm sure we will have something delicious there.
We didn't get a Christmas tree this year, but there are plenty of
decorations around town.
We are content with a small mistletoe branch for our apartment
decorations.
As you can see Santa is here too! But here they also talk about
St. Nicholas who comes down from the mountains to put candy or
sticks in children's shoes.
15 days before the year 2000. (Dec 17) People here don't talk
much about Y2K problems.
Its more a reason to party than to worry.
