Christmas Caroling:
is
still a strong tradition today. Small chorals of five to eight people
are formed and travel house to house singing Christmas Carols.
This is
done when the owner of the house is asleep and the group will walk up
close to the house and sing.
Dogs will sometimes try to keep singers
away, but the beautiful singing of these Christmas Carols usually keeps
the dogs in good behavior. The house awakens to the singing, and the
group is offered drinks or money.
Send off party: is
when someone from the community is going to somewhere "foreign" (United
States, Canada or England); all the family and friends gather.
This
event usually takes place at the end of the afternoon, and there is a
blessing of the person departing, accompanied with songs and prayers.
Sadness for those leaving melds with the joy of seeing the person
embarking on a fresh future. Food and drink are prepared by friends and
family.
This event lasts until quite late at night, and it is common
for it to still be going on the next day.
