Maybe you've heard the Swedish Christmas song that goes 'nu är det jul igen'. It translates as 'now it's Christmas again'. Yesterday was indeed Christmas at Sjölunden, and it caused our new Swedes on staff to chuckle. Imagine being served a warm Lucia bun on a warm July night. Or to dress up in red pajamas and a red stocking cap as you swat away the mosquitoes. Christmas at our village is truly special. Somehow we manage to decorate the dining hall enough so that you can almost feel as if you've been transported 2 seasons into the future. Watching Kalle Anka while eating rice pudding certainly helps too.
Tonight is restaurant night, and the kids have been talking all week about who they want to go with. They will all have to call in to make reservations for a table tonight. And our staff will transform from counselors into wait staff and pizza chefs. It's always an adventure! Watch for the pictures later tonight!
