May Day

The 1st of May is a spring holiday in our country. Usually it is warm during this day. The weather is fine. The trees are green. You can see some flowers in the parks and gardens. I don't go to school and my parents don't go to work on the 1st of May.

We get up at 9 o'clock and we are in a good mood. Our relatives and friends ring us up and congratulate us.

Then we have our breakfast and go for a walk.

Our house is situated not far from the park. There is a beautiful pond with white swans swimming there.

If it doesn't rain we enjoy walking in the park.

Usually we invite our friends to our Place or come to see them ourselves. We have a holiday party in the evening. My mother makes a tasty cake and biscuits for it.

At 9 o'clock we see our friends off.

After that the members of our family usually watch TV or listen to music.

We like this holiday very much, because we can meet our friends, go to the theatre or simply have a good time at home.

This holiday is celebrated in England and in the USA too. Children dance around a maypole, leave small baskets of flowers at a friend's door.
