Halloween holdover? Ukrainians decorate their Christmas trees with artificial spiders and webs! The roll-y spirit! In the Venezuelan capital of Caracas, it is tradition to roller skate to Christmas Mass! Yum? In Greenland, kiviak- seal skin stuffed with 500 Auk birds, left to ferment for 7 months- is served at Christmas dinner!

It’s not a tradition to skate in Caracas!!!! It may have become a thing because of the constant closing of streets due to protests, security or both. But calling that a “tradition” is beyond a stretch.

When you break your neck roller-skating to church, in the hospital they bring you a little tree decorated with spiders, and for dinner you have kiviak!
