Find the Christmas spirit in Ål in Hallingdal

It starts small. The tops turn white. Then the lights are lit in the streets of Sundre, the Christmas decorations move into the shops, a star is hung in the window, and small and big people start to look forward to everything that belongs to Christmas. The Christmas spirit in Ål also comes like this. Little by little.
