My Country's Superstitions

In my country there are some many superstitions for different events: for example

  • For the New Year it is good to eat 12 grapes and ask a wish for each one as you eat them. Another superstition with the New Year is you have to put flour, lentils and bread on your table to have plenty or enough food for next year.You also have to go around your block with a suitcase if you want to travel next year.
  • For Easter many people visit the church and pray a lot to get God's protection, and Easter Friday the people don't eat meat out of respect for God.
  • And daily if you go under a ladder it is bad luck, or if you see a black cat it is bad luck.
  • You must carry in your wallet 3 notes of a dollar each: One you have to buy, and other that you receive as a gift and the other you must to take from someone.

We went the Friday 09 of January and came back the nex sunday. His wedding was the 10TH of January close to the beach in the Gold Coast, We spend the weekend enjoying the beach and the view.
The Wedding celebration was beautifull. My cousin and his wife were very happy.
The Sunday after the wedding, Mauri and me went to ocean world to see the differents atractions and we spend all day there.
The time was lovely because the weather was no too hot.
The holiday was nice because we didn't have to pay for anything.
