Parade of lights

Earlier this month Amy had a chance to take part in the lantern parade in Holderbank. She made her lantern out of a large turnip (it's a different lantern in the photo) and placed a candle inside. The children gathered in three different locations and walked to the center of town, where they sang several songs to the crowd. It was a neat experience and we enjoyed the hot tea and "Nussgipfeli" at the end.
