Festiva!!

Today, I'm going to tell you about a festival called "Thanksgiving Day". This festival is also called Turkey Day. Because the main dish is a Tucky. I think this festival is very famous. This festival is held in America and Canada. In America, it is held on the forth Thursday in November, at the end of the harvest season. And in Canada, it is held on the second Monday in October. It is like "Bon" in Japan.The original genesis is a gratitude for the harvest to the god. It is said that this is the event to commemorate the first harvest emigrants who emigrated from Britain did . When they reached in 1620, winter was very hard and it is said a lot of people died.

FOOD
All family members gather and eat "Roast Turkey " with gravy sauce and cranberry sauce or mashed potatoes for the dinner. After the meals, they eat apple pies or pumpkin pies.

The topic is how to go there. I will tell you about how to go to Canada and America that holds Thanks Giving. First, I’ll show you how to go to America from Japan. It takes about from eight hours to twelve hours from Japan to America. And it takes two hours more from America to Japan because of the westerlies.

Scond,I'll tell you how to go to Canada. It also takes a lot of hours like going to America.

The movie I watched on the summer vacation




I saw the only movie called Linda Linda Linda on my summer vacation. It is youthfulness story. It is about high school students try to do musical performance in last school festival. At first five group members are split because one of the members broke her bone. But three members of five did not give up. They want to appear on the stage. That is why they invite a Korean international student as a vocal. They just have only three days until they greet their school festival. In that way their story begins. The member is four people. They play in their respective musical instrument of duty such as vocal, bass, guitar and drum. They lost at their loss because one is a foreigner. Moreover, she can not speak a little Japanese. But they held on. In that way, they greet the day. Their live was successful. This movie made me think to do hard one thing is very important.

Aki Maeda appears on this movie. She is my favorite actress. I knew her when I was a junior high student. She appears on a lot of televisions or movies. For example, Battle Royale, Gamera, and so on. She is called Aki-Nya among her fans. And I was one of them. I am a big fan. She is so pretty. So I like her.
