Dressing the maypole
Rising the maypole
Dancing around the maypole
I really loved this woman's midsummer garland. Beautiful!

Last Friday we celebrated Midsummer. Earlier it was on the summer solstice day but they moved Midsummer´s Eve to the closest Friday. We celebrate with a flower decorated pole, maypole, and people is dancing around it. It is special songs with movements to the words. Some people think it is fun. My daughter hated it when she was a child. But becoming a mom she suddenly taught her own children the moves. Nowadays no one is doing it. I only went to take some shots for the blog and to get a little sunshine before dinner. There are special routines for food and drink as well.
