Dear Annie,
I got very excited about hearing news from you! In your letter you asked me what is my favourite festival. Well, I love Christmas! For me is a very special occasion, because I meet all my family.
Provably the day I like the most is Christmas Eve! That day I help my mother cleaning the house and cooking, we sometimes prepare seafood and some great salads. In the afternoon comes Santa Claus to our village so I always bring my cousin to see him, and we take a photo with Santa! Then I come back home and I set the table before my family arrives. When we are all together it’s “tió’s time”. Tió is a Catalan tradition, the children have to hit a log called Tió or Tronca while they are singing a song, then appear some presents for the children and the family. Usually the presents are socks, chocolate and nougat. Finally we have dinner and sometimes we watch a comedy film.
I hope you one day you can join in that celebration, you must try to hit the tió it’s very funny! I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
Love,
Maria
