I think I have been to at least twenty.

Thank you very much Chloe for all your answers! 

We are very happy to have you here in Cala d’Or!

Concert “Bitàcola” i ruta per Ciutat

Avui hem assistit a Caixaforum Palma al concert de Bitàcola; cançons i sons electrònics en un submarí  

Ens hem submergit  al mar de Noruega. El submarí ha hagut de reiniciar tots els sistemes electrònics però gràcies als instruments com el Theremin  i al so de les cançons tradicionals de tota la vida hem hem arribat a port.

Després del concert hem agafat forces berenant i hem anar a fer una ruta per Ciutat.

 

Nit de les ànimes

Avui hem fet una activitat on hem pogut conèixer que és la Nit de les ànimes i sobretot, hem pogut veure que arreu del món també ho celebren de manera molt semblant a nosaltres. Ha vengut na Victòria que  de l’associació  Mallorca Literària a explicar-mos-ho.

A continuació, hem fet un taller de fanalets i l’hem duit cap a ca nostra. D’aquesta manera, qui vulgui, quan arribi aquest dia hi podrà posar un ciri i recordar aquells que ja no hi són.
