I did! My usual tradition is to go for a walk at sunset with an ice cold beer in hand.
The summer solstice was a BIG holiday in the ancient world, particularly in Europe. Its odd that it mostly faded away.

Nope. The weather is unusual here, hardly any hot days.
I remember when it would get hot and sunny from late March on...

Yes. Usually I read outside at midnight because it's so light that I don't need any artificial light. This time I went cycling instead, because there were too many mosquitos.
Midsummer is a big holiday here in Finland.

Lol Well, I pour the beer into a metal thermos in case someone sees me. As far as anyone is concerned it's just coffee! 😎 |

I wasn’t celebrating anything but I did go for a nice long walk in the evening until it got dark and then went home.

I changed the head on my electric toothbrush. It's supposed to be changed every 3 months. I bought it, years ago, on the first day of Fall. It's an easy reminder to change it when the seasons change.
That's as festive as it got.
