Celebrations Finn Style

Finland celebrates Xmas mainly on what brits call Christmas Eve. Santa arrives in Finnish homes already one day early from a UK perspective. He has so much work and travel to do you see. Santa actually lives in Korvatuntari which is way up north and close to the Russian border. I hope this satisfies all those questions from the Duck.

As for other questions : Reindeer are often on heat and they are real buggers when in this state. The main problem with this is trying to find a good looking one. As for trying to find an intelligent one forget it. That should satisfy our Antikanter.

Poland, this year, has sent letters to Santa Claus in Finland and many. Never before have Polish folk written so much to Santa. The UK is still the most prominent lot letter writing to Santa although Holland and Germany and France are also heavy writers. If my information is correct there were over 45 million letters this year to Santa and many addressed simply : Santa Claus, Lapland, Finland.
