We have Lucia as well, here in Denmark.
Our christmas is also celebrated on the 24th, and in the evening. We don't always watch the Disney show though, mostly the kids do.
We eat our dinner in the evening though, most often duck or a pork roast - duck is my favourite. Never turkey, at least not in my family. We then sit around the christmas tree, sing the obligatory carols, and open our presents whilst drinking whisky - at least in my family we drink whisky
We do have a weird tradition on new years, though. There's this television show called the 90-year birthday, an old sketch with this old lady and her butler, all of her friends have died and so the butler has to act as them, getting more and more drunk as he has to toast with the lady as each of her friends.
You may all know the show, I have no idea. Anyway, they always air it on new years eve, and everybody - I mean everybody - watches it.
Hangover day, January 1st, it ski-hop day. I usually turn down the contrast on my TV though, with all that bright snow...
