Lucia, a very Swedish Christmas tradition that we have even in this area of Finland. These were riding horses. In this picture they are singing Lucia songs and traditional Christmas hymns.

@tanjaostman so amazing that the Lucia girl STILL has candles I her hair EVEN on a horse. Now that is a talent!

@sinbach They were riding through our village about 1 km. But nowadays most Lucias wear electric lights. I agree it would bee talented to ride with candles. But Finland's official Lucia use to wear a crown with burning candles!
