Thanksgiving

The holiday that I am looking forward to celebrating the most in the United States is for sure the Thanksgiving day. The reason main why I am extremely excited for this date to get closer is due to the fact that this is the day when many families from all over the United States come together as a anis dy unit and I like it be around with your family.  Thanksgiving will celebrated every year on the fourth Thursday in November.

The celebration quoted elements of the pioneer life of the Pilgrims ( Plymouth Colony ) and thus carries a certain national character . Thanksgiving is in the United States, the most important celebration in Ordinary time , also used by many families and friends or other guests invited. In its center is a large meal (often dinner).  For the fact that they often gather all the generations of a family and they live scattered part of all parts of the country, there is at airports and roads in the country around the celebration far more traffic than all.

In Germany, we called this celebration as the “Erntedankfest” , it is not exactly the same , however it is a similar celebration, but in Germany most people do not really care about this day. Sountryo to be honest, I don't have so much experience with this celebration, but I am really looking forward to have a great time during this day in the United States in order to understand what really means this holiday for the Americans and their culture. 

In addition to all these reasons, I am also really excited for the thanksgiving holiday because I was invited to pass the day with an American friend, and for that reason, I will be able to learn how him and his family enjoy this holiday that is considered one of the most traditional holidays in the country.
