So I’m on my way up to San Jose to spend the weekend with my boyfriend and his family for Midsummer.
What’s Midsummer you say?Midsummer, also known as St John’s Day, or Litha, is the period of time centered upon the summer solstice, and more specifically the Northern European celebrations that accompany the actual solstice or take place on a day between June 19 and June 25 and the preceding evening.
What it really is though is a wonderful time for families to come together and sing and dance and celebrate the changing of the seasons. Now this will be my first time and I can’t even begin to describe how excited I am. The best part of experiencing new cultures and families is how much you learn about people and their life styles. The number one thing that helps me write great characters is meeting great people.
I can’t wait for today. Just wait until I share the pictures! Today is going to be an amazing day!
