Walpurgis Night - the Eve of May Day

Now, finally, spring is here. And with Walpurgis night we could celebrate for real.
For me, it was an ideal day, with sunshine, a lot of outdoor time and my family around me. I couldn't ask for more.
How about you? How did you spend Walpurgis night? Did you see any bonfires, or did you, like me, make your own at home?
Do you know why we celebrate this day?

I saw a bonfire for about 5 minutes, it was not so funny. It was little rain the night.
It was many people at the bonfire in Fjärdhundra. It was very much smoke from the bonfire their. Fredddrik

On Walpurgis night I went to Fjärdhundra to celebrate the evening with my friends. First I went to Linnéa, Ronja was there too. We met up Hampus and went to the bonfire a while, then we met some other friends and talked with them. We had a lot of fun, I laugh really much. I think Walpurgis night is to celebrate that Spring has return.

The Walpurgis day was like any other day, I was home and played computer. I wasn't outdoor very much. My uncle came at the evening and he and my family went to the bonfire for about an hour. Next day we had a birthday party for my sister. And no, I don't know why we celebrate this day, maybe to celebrate the spring.
