TALKING WITH ELDERLY PEOPLE ABOUT CHRISTMAS

On Monday, 16 of December, we went to a social place for elderly people, then, when we arrived we talk with a man.
this man had emigrated at the age of 19, he emigrated to work to Australia, now he is 74.
we had to ask him about the crhistmas in his childhood, he told us that they had class, now we have a lot of days of holidays for christmas, He also talk about that de christmas day was a common day, the only difference about that day was that maybe he had to eat rice or some food for this day, they didn't go out so much, only to drink some drinks before the dinner.
he was in Australia for about 6 years, he told us that his holidays in this place were different, he used to go out at the night with his workmates.

LET`S TALK TO PILI ABOUT CHRISTMAS

Today we will interview Pilar, aka 'Pili', a 80 year old woman from Vega del Castro, about her experience with Christmas. How did she celebrate and interact with it throughout her life? Let's find out.

Q: Did you receive Christmas presents when you were younger?
A: Only once - when I was 8 years old, I got a cardboard doll. Since I was an only child, my uncle sometimes gave me a cube with a coin, but not much else.
Q: What typical food did you eat at Christmas?
A: We usually ate potatoes on Christmas Eve, egg custard and rice.
Q: Did you have any Christmas traditions?
A: No, we didn't even put up the Christmas tree. I only know about the tree tradition because my husband told me about it when I got married.
Q: Did you adorn your house?
A: Not at all.
Q: With who did you spend Christmas?
A: With my parents and, later on, with my husband and kids.

Q: Did you travel on Christmas, or perhaps visit your family?
A: Not really.
Q: Did you know any Christmas carol or sing it?
A: Not at all. Probably because we didn't have a TV back then, only the mal-functioning radio.
Q: What about global warming? Have you noticed it lately?
A: I don't go out often, so not really. However, I did live it when they started building big smoky factories everywhere. It was overwhelming.

5. A famous person: Our queen Letizia

6. The world around you (favourite place)

Today we're going to talk about Pili's memories of Christmas.

We asked her if she remembered having presents. She said she didn't have any until her uncle gave her a container with candy on it.
She also said they didn't use to make any different food for Christmas, they just ate whatever they could eat any other day. They didn't decorate the house either, not even the Christmas tree.

She remembered spending her holidays with her parents, until she got married and got children. She loved giving presents to their children.
She didn't travel on Christmas but she said she would love to do it now that she is older and she and her husband aren't busy with work or taking care of their children.

This seems to be a very different Christmas than the ones we got now.
For example, Pablo and I (and most of the children of our age) have presents, most of the time things we have asked for.
We do special foods for the ocassion.
As Pili, we also spend the holidays with our family and we don't travel far away from home.

It was a time of year like any other.

In Spain, people used to spend Christmas at home with their families.
They didn't receive presents, they didn't decorate their houses and there was hardly any excitement about the holidays.

Currently, Christmas in Spain is the most anticipated time for many people, all the streets and houses are decorated, people receive gifts, and excitement abounds in the houses.
These holidays are spent with family, in the best company.
It is a time full of joy for many that is eagerly awaited throughout the year.
