Christmas Eve

Today it's Christmas Eve, and the thunderstorms, lightning and rain are doing their best to add to the gloominess. It is strange to celebrate Christmas without friends and family, and it's a bit boring to be honest.

We are, however, making the most of it, and we have bought plenty of food to celebrate tonight. I even got some Sauerkraut and will be making mashed swedes, so a little bit of Norwegian Christmas will be present. Leo and Natsumi are also making a dish each, so we will have plenty of food, and good variety.

There are some gifts under the tree too, not many, but it's a small tree so it's maybe better with few gifts.

Thanks a lot for Christmas cards, gifts and Christmas greetings that have found their way down here to us, very much appreciated!

We wish you all a merry Christmas - wherever you are!
