SANT JORDI-23/04

Nowadays the day of “Sant Jordi” is a special day. People are very happy because they work a short day, They plan to have some free time to go out to the town centre and visit the special market with stalls selling books and roses.
Men give a rose to their wife or girlfriend, and women give a book to their husband or boyfriend. Not only lovers buy roses and books, some men buy roses for their colleagues and everybody buys a book for their friend or themselves.
Some schools have stalls to raise money for their end of course trips. At schools teachers organize different activities related to literature like writing poems or short stories, reading texts or watching films. Finally the best ones receive a prize.
At home it is a special day, because my fater is called Jordi and my parents celebrate their wedding aniversary, so we have a dinner party.
Don’t forget to congratulate Jordis an Jordines.
