Tiqui, tiqui, ti.............

Well, the Fiestas Patrias is the better of the year. It's a date very special because it's celebrated the First Reunion of Government and for this reason is a date very happy for all. Also, because every 18 of September it's celebrated with "empanadas", "chicha", barbecues and many "cueca", it's a wonderfull date. Every year, my mum cooks "empanadas" and with my family we met and made a barbecue the 19 of September while we see "The Militar Parade" al years is the same, is a tradicion. I remember that before when I was a child I was living near to O'Higgins Park and for this date with my sisters and father went to "Fondas" and with my father flew a kite in the "elipse", also I remember that in my school with my classmates we were doing plays and competitions of spinning top, race in sack, careers, greasy stick and other tradicionals plays, it was entertained. In fact, the best 18 was a year when arrived my grandfathers of south with my uncles and cousins. I remember that we went to "Fondas" of O'Higgins Park and we ate and drank a lot, I remember that was the first time that I tasted "chicha".

Today with luck, I dance "cueca" but the feel is the same to celebrate with the family and friends this important date for all chileans.
