December 22nd in Spain, a recent tradition

Weather forecast: Min 8ºC, Max 14ºC, mist

The background is: December 22nd, Spain, international reporters in Madrid. Why this? Because they are expecting a recent Spanish custom. The lotto day- people say.

Everybody holds their breath at 8 a.m. when the rit did start. Some children called "San Ildefonso´s children" started their process: catching balls with numbers and crying them with the prizes. Thus, until all the prizes would be given.

Their public was a bit weird. They were freaks with odd fancy dress with number balls and the lotto tickets. A Japanese reporter said it was his first time.

The balls keep going and children´ voices. Nearly the half of Spain was awake to listen who was the affortunated of that big amount of money.

And then. Then, the luckiest people began to jump, bounce, laugh and open Cava bottles. All the same in all the country, the news were only about that. The lotto, the lot.

But wait. You said it is a kind of tradition, didn´t you?


Thanks, little reader. I did say it. 

Most of Spaniards are waiting for this day during all the year. It´s possible to buy the lotto tickets til the December 21st. However, it´s the gift of them wich makes the tradition. Friends, relatives, class and work mates gift participations of that lotto tickets.

The most curious data is that the prize of each ticket worth €20. Even though, the hope of having some more money breaks the money obstacle. Money makes money.

So, you know why I switched off the TV - to avoid watching one and another one the same news.

Have a nice weekend!





 

Red Moon

Weather forescast: Min -4ºC, Max 6ºC, no wind, brighty

Red her lips.

Passion on their hips.

The bloody Moon was their name.


I wrote these little words last Saturday to that white princess who turns into red lips sometimes. Do you know what´s the reason to that color for so short time?


In a Moon Eclipse when the Earth hid the Moon from the Sun:

1º The Moon "can´t see" the Sun.

2º The light of the Sun is reflected over the Earth atmosphere toward the Moon.

3º The Moon turns into red.


This last short time. For instance, it was one hour last Saturday until She turns to yellow and white.


I´d like to kiss your white skin and red lips, baby.

P.S. : I ve found this NASA video about one Red Moon in 2011.

Fight for Cataluña Region

Weather forecast: Min -4ºC, Max 6ºC, bright, no wind

Hi to everybody, again. As you know there was the election in Cataluña some week ago. The election was anticipated as a mesure of support the independentist project by Artur Mas, head of the ancient regional government CIU. It´s likely you wonder what were the results, isn´t it?

So, have a little time to the figure.

According to the results we can notice CIU lost the majority and requires support for having it. So, the options are:

-ERC, independentist left wing -> They support the independency but they don´t agree the right politics of CIU.

-PSC, national left wing-> It has rejected the support.

-PP, national right wing

-Other groups.


Which is the future of Cataluña? It´s too soon to know it, though there are having several meetings these weeks. Anyway, we must point out the high participation -closer to 70%- and that Cataluña doesn´t follow like a team the independency.

Otherwise, it´s too soon to say what it´s going to happen.

Have a nice day!

The Road

Weather forecast: Max 6ºC, Min -4ºC, no wind, brighty

 Sinous, dark, through the night. Lost feet in their path. The wheels are no longer wheels after time and time.Speed grows up. Down road I go.

Memories, experiences, mixed by the vibration cloud.
Engine over 3000rpm.

Outside: silence, switch up, perpetuity, shift up.

And their curves are getting closer.

And their curvers are drawing.

And their curves are disappearing.

Down road I go, in the quiet night journey.
