Yesterday we were in procession for the first time! I was surprised how many people were there. Also, girls liked that and I think that this will be our new way how to celebrate “Lāčplēšu diena”.
I was so taken away by all the candle lights and was amazed by all the people!

Yup. I used dark red and white candles to make four “flags”. It is such a lovely light you can get from the candle chandelier wth 12 candles! Beautiful! 🙂

Than you! I’m starting to make it as a tradition for our family. I never before attend “Lāčplēšu dienas” memorial procession but I knew about it.
