Sankt Hans Celebration

Midsummer night is a huge celebration in Denmark with lots of parties and bonfires on the beach. The strawberry full moon was actually Saturday but the Danish (being very organized) like to have the celebration on the same day every year so it was celebrated on Monday this year. Soren's parents invited a large group of family and friends over for a bbq where we played some fun games and celebrated together.

All the boys trying to figure out how to open the keg, Caroline (in the background) finally had to step in and show the men how to do it.

The tradition of witches celebrating Sankt Hans Day is very important to FarMor so she wears a hat every year.

AnaSofia was completely excited about that and wore the hat all night and went around saying "I am a hix (witch)!" to anyone that would listen. She has picked up SO MUCH danish here, it is amazing.


Later we headed out to check out the bonfires down by the water.



AnaSofia was quite tired by the end of the night (it was around midnight). Notice how light it is still! That was amazing, it gave so much energy to us all.
