Snow bath, in some places, it's a tradition, where little children are bathed in snow. They say it makes the child stronger, giving him or her a strong immune system to battle any kind of sickness. All in all, it's said to bring good health.
That's what Google will tell you.
I know, I looked it up too.
But for these folks, these people… It's a tradition, yes, but not a tradition to build up a stronger immune system.
No… Far from it.
For them, it's a tradition just for Duke, the Christmas baby. It's a birthday tradition. A tradition where more than bathing, there's snow smashing, snow slapping, snow dipping and burying; where they pin him down to the cold snow and try to bury him before he can escape.
All in all, there's less snow bathing and more snow mania.
"Duke, watch out! Behind you!!!" I scream from behind the window as he's holding off Alan, but Fredrick is coming up from behind him.
