Christmas Day Dec. 25, 2023

Christmas Day

Somebody play "Jingle Bells" because Christmas is here! The season begins with the lighting of Christmas trees in town squares and homes, spreading a festive glow. Get your boots on and enjoy winter activities such as skating, skiing, and sledding to welcome the holiday atmosphere. Families gather for wholesome feasts on Christmas Day, often featuring a succulent turkey at the centre of the table. Festive decorations adorn homes, and cities host vibrant parades, events and set up local markets. Additionally, multicultural influences enrich the celebration, with various communities incorporating their customs. We hope that Santa Claus stopped by and left your presents under the tree. From our family to yours, Merry Christmas!
