Chinese Spring Festival

Today I have received an e-mail from Paiman.
-
He wrote me :

"Hello Ana,
-
I am Paiman from GE, I do remember my commitment to send you information regarding Chinese Spring Festival,

but I really can't find
any English website for introduction. I am so sorry..."
-
He add two links and surprise !!
-
After I reviewed 4 or 5 pages in Chineses, of course, I didn't understand any character, at last, I found the English version about the Spring Festival...
-
Sometime it's a good idea to be a bit stubborn...
-
Thanks Paiman!
-
We can know more about your culture and this is great !

This is very nice news!

Christmas times Event

Last night, I went with friends to “Parque Central”

This is a new Park built by Mendoza's County and they organized a great Concert played by the "Mendoza Philharmonic Orchestra”. We was listening an amazing music.

They played Classic music: "Ruslán and Ludmila" (Glinka), Mussorgsky, Tchaicovsky, Brahms and Rossini.

It was enjoyable music that generated in the people a very good feeling. I love these kinds of events...
I'm not sure if I can put it here but I did a little video there and I would like to share with all of you. The music is really great!
I only can say that yesterday, the night was very pleasant. It was warm with a great moon in the sky. At the same time, when we were listening to the music, we could watch the orchestra playing and at the same time we could see nice and funny Egyptian ducks swimming on the lake because the scenery was beside the lake. It was a wonderful time!


I went with a few friends. We share the feeling that we have at the end of the year.
We are starting our summer vacation and in front of us we have a new year, a time to relax, to plan new possibilities.

Why not? The next year will come full of new opportunities to us…
We really enjoyed the evening and our relationship. After the concert we went at small familiar place and we ate pizza and cheered for our frelationship and for my birthday...
We passed a great time together...

GE' Teachers Sugestions...

First of all, I want to say, Thanks Karen!!! because you send a nice sugestions.

I visited the sites and I could enjoy with amazing pictures and at the same time I could learn more about your place and your culture.

Hi Ana,

I thought I'd add a few links to your site, so that you and other students at GE can see some of the beautiful places that you can visit here in England.
First of all, there are some wonderful photos of the Peak District National Park
by local photographer, Ian Mateer

I live just twenty minutes from this park, and my family and I often go here for long walks. The Peak District is actually in the north of England, but I'm originally from the Midlands, and grew up living near one of the most beautiful medieval castles in Europe called Warwick Castle

Warwick is just a few miles from Stratford-upon-Avon, where Shakespeare was born

As you will be able to see from the pictures, there are a lot of thatched cottages. In fact, I lived in one as a child!

Good luck with your site!

Karen (one of your GE teachers)

Sobre mí

I'm Diana from Mendoza, Argentina. I'm studying English. I want to use this blog to share all about my place, "Mendoza" and my country "Argentina". It will be a pleasure to answer questions about it. I would like to receive comments and ideas about different topics or images that you can find here. I will enjoy if you tell me about you, your country and your culture. It's a good place to practice and develop English writing. Sometime we know vocabulary but... it´s difficult to express our ideas in English in correct way. Then, we need to practice :) Welcome to my place! Please, feel comfortable :) Free Web Site Counter
