Lucia

As I told you in my earlier post I was planning on participating in Melbournes Swedish Lucia train. And so I did. I was excited after three practise times to go to the Scandinavian Market. As I arrived I met up with Wes, who I was happy to get to come along, and I got myself ready to perform. I managed the day before to get a few more Swedish au-pairs to join which was fun. It was a very warm day and I got a bit sticky in that long white dress. Overall the day was nice. We sang and people were sitting having a picnic on the grass while listening. After the performance Wes and I ate some waffles and I was desperately looking for some lussebullar and got disappointed when they decided not to sell that in the café. We bought ginger cookies to bring home and entered a competition to win a trip for two to Sweden. Unfortunately we didn’t win, but I never do that anyway – so no expectations.

     

The weekend afterwards we had performances again. This time we were to go to IKEA in the city and the other IKEA in the other suburb and sing. Morning started at 10 and finished at 3. At the first place we got free lunch after singing which was really nice.. Swedish meatballs, mash potato and brown sauce. And a chocolate ball on that. Yum! After performing at the other place we were all given a 50 dollar gift card which was kind of them. It was funny how people stared, especially as they had no idea what we were singing. Haha. And I must say, I felt very Swedish!
