In Sweden in the middle of cold December, Lucia
brings light and a taste of Christmas. On 13 December, St Lucia Day was
celebrated all over Sweden - in schools, churches, hospitals, and offices. The
Embassy of course organized Lucia celebrations also in Latvia - last week Lucia
came to both Riga, Daugavpils and Liepaja! Below you can see some photos from
Liepaja, reported the Embassy on its Facebook page.
