Ozp Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Finally I have received all parts and have completed my entry to the Expand the Winter Village contest. My entry is a stage where the crowning of this years lucia is ongong. Lucia is a swedish tradition. On the morning of 13th of december the lucia and a procession comes with candles and sings christmas carols and serve up saffron buns and gingerbreads. Usually every town choses their own lucia. The first image shows the mayor that gives the candle crown to the lucia. Second image shows the lucia with the crown on Last image shows the whole procession with the lucia in the middle. Some more pictures can be found on my flickr http://www.flickr.co...s/86394332@N03/ Quote
NoEinstein Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Another culture teaching entry, lovely! Explaining the ceremony using your entry is a great idea. Good luck in the contest. Quote
majorna Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Yep, that's pretty much exactly what a Lucia ceremony looks like! Quote
Zula Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 VERY COOL! Some of us in the USA celebrate Santa Lucia, too! Quote
