ReplyDeleteLa semana Santa
Todo el mundo se cierra durante cuatro días, del jueves al domingo. Personas se reúnen en la calle y ver el desfile. El Presidente del desfile lleva una varilla de oro. El flotador entra y sale de la iglesia. Cada flotador representa el orgullo y el entusiasmo de cada Andaluz.

DeleteEveryone closes for four days, from Thursday to Sunday. People gather in the street and watch the parade. The president of the parade wears a gold rod. The floater enters and leaves the church. Each float represents the pride and enthusiasm of each Andalusian. Alters and the streets are decorated.

Señor de los Milagros happens on October 18th. This celebration happens in Peru. Back in the 1700's, there was a big earthquake in Lima, Peru's capital. The earthquake had destroyed everything except for a painting of the Purple Christ. Many people still celebrate this holiday, despite it happening 300 years ago.

Interesante. ¿Qué es la historia? ¿Cuáles son las tres ocasiones? Pienso que las crepes sean excelente. ¿Te gustan las crepes?
DeleteAlthough Las Fallas de Valencia was originally St. Joseph’s day, the Spanish holiday is now anything but religious. Local organizations will spend an entire year and thousands of dollars building ninots. These giant, flammable statues often stand many stories high and represent political figures or celebrities. The ninots are set up all over the city early on in the celebration (on the day of the rising, or la plantá) and set afire (after all of the lights are turned out) on the last day at midnight (la cremá). Each year one puppet is saved and put into a museum. The festival also includes many other entertaining activities such as bullfighting, beauty contests, and a daily (noisy) firecracker show known as the mascletá.

The Los Indianos festival in Latin America is one of the strangest events you will ever see. People dress in all white and amass themselves together. If you didn't think this was weird, they also throw talcum powder at each other for hours on end. The festival was started as way to kill disease brought on by immigrants. It now serves a platform to welcome them.

ReplyDeleteThe tradition takes place in September in the Basque fishing town of Lekeito. The tradition is called Geese day (Antzar Eguna). This tradition starts with people trying to rip off the head of a dead goose tied to a rope over the town harbour. Men in fishing boats that successfully get a hold on the goose find themselves dangling from the rope. Spectators control the rope and dunk them in the water and try to shake them off.

ReplyDeleteEn la ciudad pequeña de Nejapa en El Salvador, celebraron una fiesta grande se llama “Bolas de Fuego”. El festival imita la erupción de un volcán. La gente de corren alrededor la ciudad y lanzan bolas de fuego a sus amigos. Lanzan las bolas de fuego porque ellos están imitando Santa Jeronimo, quién lanza bolas de fuego de un volcán para quitar demonios de la ciudad. Sorprendentemente, el festival sido celebrado por diez años y no personas mueren.

DeleteThe holiday that I chose is The Immaculate Conception that is celebrated in Spain. It is celebrated on December, 8th every year. It is where everyone from their churches get together and have a giant feast. This holiday dates back to the 8th century. The Immaculate Conception is the day Jesus was conceived without original sin.

DeleteThe celebration I chose is the Corpus Christi Festival. This festival takes place in Peru. This festival used to be celebrated all over the country, but now it is mostly celebrated in the capitol Cusco. Basically, they have fifteen saints and virgins arrive from different places to the cathedral. They come here to "greet" the body of Christ and they ring bells from the cathedral. They do this celebration sixty days before Easter. The night before, they have a big feast in the town with all of the local foods.

ReplyDeleteNuestra Señora de la Divina Providencia or Our Lady of Divine Providence is on November 19th. There was a bishop named Monsignor Gil Esteve Tomas. He was the bishop of Puerto Island. The island was discovered on November 19th. That is why the date is on November 19th.
