It hasn't been raining for weeks, it is rather windy, and the dry grass from last year would probably need water far more than fire, but that's how it is. Bonfires will be lit all over Sweden this evening (at least in the areas where it is allowed by the local fire departments), some people will enjoy barbequed sausages or something similar, some will drink far more alcohol than necessary, and choirs will sing the traditional "Valborg" songs — all of it (well, perhaps not the part about alcohol) in the honour of spring.

Our family will spend this evening at some friends' house, probably taking a short walk to the nearest bonfire (which we're not sure whether or not it will be lit) and have some sausages with the rest of the people present. Children will be running around and there will probably be some fireworks as dusk slowly emerges. Happy "Valborg" everyone!
