CELEBRATIONS IN MY CITY

I'm from Seville and here, there are two most important partys and those are very famous in Spain and in the world. Do you know what are this partys? Sevile's April Fair and Semana Santa.
Have you ever went Seville's April fair? If you never been here, I' m going to tell you about this party. This party during a complete week. The first day is called "Pescaíto". This is the day which fair starts. All the week there are differents activities that you can do and enjoy this. There you can dance, drink and eat, go to atracctions...
In the morning you can ride horses and walk around the fair. The most typical dances are "sevillanas" and there are many music groups who sing "sevillanas". There are, too, a tyical dress to the women. I haven't got anything to tell cause I think you must come to the fair and enjoy it. Then, you must compare my opinion whith your impresion. Sincerely, I prefer the fair instead of Semana Santa, the other celebration that I wrote at the beginging of the topic. In this week, you can see how the icons walk around the city. This is a religious celebration and the people come to see the "pasos"(here are the icons and the "costaleros" lead above their back). Some of the most famous images are:
La Macarena, El Gran Poder, La Esperanza de Triana...but there a lot of icons!
Maybe you prefer Semana Santa instead of The fair and your opinion is different to the mine. And, if you ever see nothing of this that I tell you can see both and tell me what is your favourite. ENJOY THEM!
