Christening — Võru

Most christenings in Võru happen in spring or early summer, which means the venue is often a private garden or a community hall that hasn't been used since winter. You find out the power is inadequate when you try to run sound and a buffet warmer at the same time. The bathroom is two rooms away from where anyone will hear a crying infant. There is no shade at two in the afternoon.

We arrive early enough to know what the room will not do, and we bring what it takes to make it work anyway.
