CHRISTMAS IN FRANCE

In France Christmas starts on December 1st with the Advent calendar : from December 1st till December 24th children eat one chocolate per day to wait for Christmas.

1. Then we buy a Christmas tree and we decorate it with Christmas balls and garlands. 

We also decorate our houses.

Father Christmas called Le Père Noël in France brings presents for all the children (and all the members of the family really) on the night of December 25th. 

On December 25th all the members of the family gather to celebrate Christmas : very often we eat  foie gras (duck liver pâté), a christmas turkey and a special Christmas chocolate and vanilla ice- cream called La bûche de Noël (Christmas Log).

Joyeux Noël à tous !     Merry Christmas to Everyone !

Who is Sophia in Portugal?

                                                                                                         

      Sophie de Mello Breyner Andresen is a very important writer, in Portuguese Literature.

       Sophie’s parents were Danish but she was born in Oporto.

      There are things she loved: writing, flowers and the sea.

      Many of her stories are dedicated to the young people: “The sea girl”, “The Fairy    Oriana”, “The Christmas Night”, “The Danish Knight”, “The Bronze Boy” or “The Forest”.

      She dies in 2004, in Lisboan, with 84 years old.

     For those who love Sophia’s books, she is always present in her minds.

    One of her most famous quotes is:

      “When I die, I’ll return to look for the moments I didn’t live by the sea.”

     We’re going to tell you a secret: we love Sophie de Mello Breyner Andresen. Her books are wonderful.
