On Christmas Eve (24. Dec), norwegians have their meal. Normally "ribbe" and "pinnekjøtt", and some are also eating turkey, "lutefisk" and "rakfisk". Differently from for examle USA and England, norwegians opens their Christmas gifts this night, not the morning the twentyfifth. Many also visits the church.

Traditionally a candle on Christmas eve, but any light today. A welcoming light.
