spanish january holidays
Spanish speakers help me please!?

these q’s are some of my spanish hw, it about matching dates with holidays(in spanish) which ones match with with ones??

Dates:
1. el primero de mayo(1st of may)
2. el 6 de enero(january 6th)
3. el 28 de Diciembre(december 28th)

Holidays:
A. El dia del trabajo(day of work.. maybe Labor day?)
B. La noche vieja(the night trip/ or the old night)
C. El dia de los Reyes Magos(i have no clue what this means)

the other Matching ones were easy.. For example like this:
“6.El primero de Enero(january 1st)—>G. El Ano Nuevo(new year)

But these 3 that i have left are really confusing please help me or tell me what you think they might be..

thank you very much i am basically depending on these answers to finish this spanish HW assignment.. and just to let everyone know, I ALWAYS finish my homework.. Thanks in advance i will appreciate your help/effort!

3 is c- reyes means kings and when you mix kings and Christmas the 1st that pops into your head is the bible story of Jesus and the 3 wise kings ( so you get that connection now ) and as for the other 2 you might want 2 look on the internet

Wine to Fit All Sorts of Occasions From January to December

Perfect Pairings

January 20, 2008 – as published in the Beacon News and Naperville Sun

By Bill Garlough

 

Pairing wines with food is fun, entertaining and downright tasty. Many of my 2007 milestones, memories and seasonal celebrations included great food and wine. Here are some of my favorite picks and pairings from last year.

Winter

January is our favorite time to have a party. The holidays are over, everyone is relaxed and there is no better way to spend a snowy night than with good friends. Chinese New Year is a great seasonal theme and everyone likes Asian food. The higher acidity and tropical fruit notes of Rieslings and Gewurztraminers help offset the heat of this spicy cuisine.

Bill’s picks: Chateau Ste. Michelle Eroica Riesling, Washington State, $18; Fitz-Ritter Gewurztraminer, Germany, $17.

The comes February, and romance is in the air as we celebrate Valentine’s Day. Start with an expensive French Champagne and finish with a port, paired with chocolate of course.

Bill’s picks: Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne, France, $60; Rosenblum Desiree Chocolate Port, California, $21.

Spring

Just a hop or two away, Easter is upon us and the traditional Easter ham. We like to serve either a Chardonnay or a Pinot Gris.

Bill’s picks: Trimbach Pinot Gris “Reserve” Alsace, France, $19; Tapestry Chardonnay McLaren Vale, Australia, $14; Elk Cove Pinot Gris, Oregon, $18.

With the weather warming, we often serve Rosés. Lighter colored Rosés pair well with fish, salads and soft cheeses, while darker red Rosés can stand up to spicy barbecue and Asian cuisine.

Bill’s picks: Chateau De Trinquevedel of Tavel, France, $16; Cabernet d’Anjou, Loire Valley, France, $9.

Summer

As picnics and barbecues dominate July, we break out the Zinfandels, Syrahs and Shiraz. Their jammy and slightly sweet fruit is the perfect counter to barbecue’s bold flavors.

Bill’s picks: Rosenblum “North Coast” Zinfandel, Washington, $12; St. Francis “Old Vine” Zinfandel, California, $15; Cycles Gladiator Central Coast Syrah, California, $12; Mr. Riggs “The Gaffer” Shiraz, Australia, $24.

The oppressive heat of August calls for Sangria. While a couple of pre-bottled varieties are available, nothing beats the taste of homemade Sangria. Shiraz is recommended for red Sangria, while Muscat, Riesling and Gewí¼rztraminer are all good bases for white Sangria.

Bill’s picks for pre-bottled Sangria: Real Sangria, Spain, $8; de la Costa Sangria, California, $10.

Fall

Autumn brings Oktoberfest. Riesling’s low alcohol level and high acidity make it an ideal wine to pair with bratwurst, schnitzels and even sauerbraten.

Bill’s picks: Ress Kabinett Riesling, Germany, $13; Dr. Loosen Riesling, Germany, $32; Studert-Prí¼m Riesling, Germany; $20.

With our traditional Thanksgiving dinner, I serve the food friendly Pinot Noir

Bill’s picks: A to Z Pinot Noir, Oregon, $18; Jigsaw Pinot Noir, Oregon, $17; Fiddlehead Pinot Noir “Oldsville” Reserve, Oregon, $42.

Champagne Cocktails are a festive way to usher in the holidays. For a more affordable “champagne” cocktail, use either an Italian Prosecco or Spanish Cava. Just add a little of your favorite fruit juice, sweet liquor or aperitif to the sparkling wine and you have a grand start to your celebration..

Bill’s picks: Zardetto Prosecco, Italy, $12; de Marques Gelida Cava, Spain, $13; Mionetto Prosecco di Valdobbiadene, Italy, $16.

How does Costa Rica celebrate the holiday season during December and January?

project for spanish >:p

a website with information is
wuht i need.

plz and thnx :]

There are parades and festivals of all kinds, two of the traditional parades are the Christmas parade and the horse parade which are held near the end of December.
The Carnavals in Zapote and Palmares also attract huge crowds of people who go danicng, partying, beer drinking, and cruising around, they also have costarrican bull fights where many people gather in a rodeo style structure called el redondel, many improvsed bull fighters tease and get close to the bull, while the crowds laugh and scream everytime the bulls catch or scares one of them.
At the end the bulls never get hurt much less killed and it ends with a firework display.
People in Costa rica celebrate the whole month of December and usually into January.
another traditional activity is the avenidazo which is the stroll along central avenue throwing confetti to others.
After people recieve their aguinaldos which is the yearly christmas bonus people start the serious christmas shopping.
December is probably the best time to visit Costa Rica.

Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
