MY CHRISTMAS

Sara and her family gather for traditional Danish festivities

We celebrate on Christmas Eve, and usually get up late because we’ve been busy at work in the run up to Christmas. We wrap the presents and make dinner preparations and then go to Church in the afternoon. Afterwards, our family start to arrive and, once we’re all settled, we’ll eat a traditional Danish Christmas dinner of duck with potatoes. After dinner we light the candles on the tree and then everyone holds hands and we sing carols and dance around the branches.
