Hammel Tree Lighting

Michael and I walked to the center of town to catch the excitement of seeing the Julemand, or Santa Claus light the town tree. A huge crowd with lots of kids were there to be sure they got their bag of candy from Santa. (Nov. 30)

A young band performs music for the crowd.

Hammel's Christmas Tree

Santa passing out candy...from a shopping cart!

Michael, who looks like he has drunk too much glogg, shows his sugary loot. But it was the adults who got a free cup of glogg and a few aebleskiver! Oh! Christmas is great!
