 Christmas Eve is the most important day of Christmas in Norway. Most families decorated the tree late the night before or early in the morning on Christmas Eve. Churches, large and small are packed with people for the Family Service at 16:00, and even if you don't go to church the rest of the year, you get there for this service, or the one on Christmas Morning. And don't forget, in Norway there's also the extra 2nd Day of Christmas to celebrate! (Photo: The American Lutheran Church in Oslo) |

 Not all Norwegians experience the traditional White Christmas this year. Turbulent weather in the past week has even washed away what there was of snow in many places along the Western coast and in the sout-east. However, on Christmas Morning at least in the low-lying areas in Eastern Norway people woke up to fresh, white snow. |

 This year it first looked like most Norwegians would celebrate a White Christmas. In the lowlying areas of south eastern Norway and the Oslo area, the much longed-for 'Julesnoe' (Christmas snow) finally came as darkness fell on Saturday evening, - but then late on 'Little Christmas Eve' (Lillejulaften) as they say in Norway, it turned milder, and now it seems the snow will remain only in the North and in the inland areas of the South.
