Chestnut festival "La Castanyada"
The “CASTANYADA”
Hello, we are Ferran Gascon and David Villa. We explain things about
this festival.
This name comes from “castanyes”. This is a fruit, and this days
we eat these. In English they are chestnuts. We eat toasted chestnuts.
We also make “panellets”, a small cake or kind of biscuits.
They are very good. The “panellets” are dressed with pine nut or almond
or coconuts or fruits or chocolate or quince ...
The sweet potato is a typical foot of this days. They are toasted,
too . Are you hungry?
Bye, bye.

We are going to explain what we do on the “Tots Sants” day
(All Saints day), in other words the day of the dead people.
In the “Tots Sants” day, the people of Catalonia go to the cemetery for
their dead family, and put some flowers in the tombs.The cemeteries open
only for this day.

Vamos a contar que hacemos el dia de todos santos. El dia de todos santos
la gente va al cementerio a llevar florers a sus más intimos familiares
a demas los cementerios solo habren aquel dia.

We are going to compare Halloweeen with the “Castanyada”. Halloween
and Castanyada celebrate at 31st of October but is not the same.
In Spain the people do not wear masks and do not make Jack-o´-Lantern
but in Spain people eat chesnuts and sweet potatoes. Halloween is the night
for the witches and ghosts.
Español:
Nosotros vamos a comparar Halloween con la castañada.
Halloween y la castañada se celebran en el 31 de octubre pero no
es lo mismo. En España la gente no viste mascaras y no hace “jack-o-lantern”
pero en España la gente come castañas y moniatos. Halloween
es la noche de las brujas y de los fantasmas.
Jordi y Albert.
