Geocache Description:


No Night Caching

The variety of mid-winter holiday celebrations is amazing. Still, even when you look at just one holiday like Christmas it's amazing how different countries and areas do some things very differently... In Iceland, you can expect to get a new-to-you book on Christmas Eve and the plan is to curl up and read for the evening. Maybe your family has a different custom that is unique to you, maybe you will find a new tradition after reading through these caches.

 

As I'm always interested in different customs from different places when this idea popped up I just had to go with it... So to solve these mystery caches you have to figure out which country has the following tradition.

This country’s folk tradition has it that mischievous Kallikantzaroi, or hobgoblins, rise from the underground to wreak havoc during the 12 days of Christmas. To make sure they disappear, priests travel to homes on the day of the Epiphany, January 6, and bless them with holy water.

 

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
