โ€œThe Advent season is important in the German tradition as a time of rising anticipation.โ€ The German Ambassador to Georgia, Hubert Knirsch explained. โ€œFour Sundays before the Christmas tree, the Advent wreath with four candles adorns our home - a new candle is lit on each Advent Sunday. As many embassy employees will be on leave over Christmas, the important social gathering for the Tbilisi embassy is St. Nicholasยด Day, December 6th. Unlike โ€œSanta Clausโ€, the airborne fellow with the reindeer, a German-style Nicholas appears in the house in person, after being summoned by kids and grown-ups with suitable seasonal songs. From my youth, I remember a very strict St. Nicholas who used to come with a black and golden book, in which he had duly registered all my good and bad deeds over the year. These he read out for everybody to hear before he generously declared me a good enough boy and handed out a bag of little presents. Here in Tbilisi, St. Nicholas seemed to have an interpreterยดs training and was fluent in Georgian as in German when addressing kids from the embassy community. The grown-ups played โ€œSecret Santaโ€ and the German and Georgian songs rendered showed that the Advent spirit had truly caught on.โ€
