Midsummer Solstice

Sunday 23 June was Midsummer Solstice and is a 2 day celebration. It is the longest day of the year and the night is only 4 hours long.

People wear crowns of flowers (women) or leaves (men). 

Here is a very large crown. Where is Ted?

  Tony/ Pop and I made a flower crown for me to wear.

 There are tents with food and drinks.

Music and dancing at 4 stages. Ted is on stage, can you see him?

 There are also games to play, like lift the barrel.

Large bonfires are made and lit at sunset, which was close to 10.30pm.
