Our World: Lucia Edition
December 13 is Lucia here in Scandinavia. It's a time when choirs carry candles and the Lucias wear candles in their hair and they all sing like angels while the snow falls softly outside.
Lucia is about bringing the light into the darkness and spreading warmth and love. (The world needs all the light and goodness it can get.)

I was away filming in southern Sweden and stayed overnight in a hotel in a charming town called Kalmar. In the middle of the main square, there was a beautiful church and some signposts. The one to right points to a swimming pool called Cat Butt. (Someone had a sense of humour!)
