Christmas is not the same everywhere, and isn't that a good thing?
Every December when I was a young girl, the phone company set up a special phone number that we could call to hear Santa speaking from various countries. He'd tell us about Christmas traditions in those places and of course wish us a Merry Christmas. I'd then get out my globe and imagine what it might be like to celebrate Christmas around the world.
This episode is from me, not Santa, but it's my way of saying happy holidays to you by sharing a few Christmastime traditions from various countries.
