Holidays

Today we have a holiday! The Youth and Sports Day.
Television shows 2 big stadiums filled with young people dancing in big coreographies.
It seems that Atatürk established this day together with the Children's day on April 23 to be holidays.
They told me that on the Children's day Turkey invites 1 children from every country in the world to come to the cities of Turkey and celebrate. I'm sorry I missed the party, I could have met the portuguese kid!
Also in the Children's day all the parlamentary people is replaced by children!

It sounds like a wonderful idea to celebrate youth, children and sports! That´s perhaps the reason why Turkey is such a young country compared to getting-old European countries in general...
Take the best of your holiday now that you are a young man :)Nnn
