Nelson Mandela Day, Madrid 2010
Nelson Mandela Day was first celebrated in New York in 2009. The second Nelson Mandela Day will be celebrated in Madrid on 18th July, 2010. Throughout the month Madrilians will enjoy the performances of different artists who also think that changing the world is 'in our hands'. If you want to know more about this special celebration, click here or here. Also you can find information in Cadena 100.
If you haven't seen Invictus yet, now it's probably a very good moment. Reading the book by John Carlin, which the film is based on is also a great option.

Hi, Ángel. Thanks a lot for visiting my blog. I think yours is well worth a visit too. I was really surprised when I received your comment and the award, I didn't even know there was such an award but I think it's an awesome idea.
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm Natalia and I from Fuenlabrada (Madrid). I have done some exercises of your web site and I think that It's good! I have done the ellipsis exercise and It's interesting!
ReplyDeleteGood bye!
Hello, Natalia. Thanks a lot. I'm really happy you like my blog. I'm very grateful to your teacher and all the students for your wonderful comments. You know what? My own students visit the blog a lot (or so they say) but rarely do they write comments so now I'm so excited about all the comments I'm getting from Fuenlabrada. Thank you deep down.
