Walpurgisnacht, although we call it valborgsm?ssoafton, is celebrated here with bonfires and singing spring songs.
Usually it's fucking cold and ppl stand around the fire freezing their asses off
But yesterday was lovely and warm. There was an unusually big crowd in the park across the street from my house. Other than the fire there was a choir, balloons and sausages were sold, and there was a fire truck just in case. The kids were allowed into the truck and the firemen showed them all the exciting things in it.
1st of May is always a holiday here, as I think in all Europe. It's the international labour movement's day, celebrated with various demonstrations by all the leftist parties and several unions.
