The legend of Sant Jordi


Hello everybodyy !
Today it's Sant Jordi and the World-Wide Day of the Book.
Because of that, now I'm going to talk about the legend of Sant Jordi.
Some time ago, there was a castle with a king and a princess. Very near, there was a dragon who can took out fire from the mouth. This dragon requered every week a gril for lunch. And one day, they wanted to eat the daugther of the king.
When the dragon went to his cave with the princess, in their way appears a knight ridden in a white horse. When the knight, whose name was Jordi, saw that, he got closer to the dragon, took his sword and killed the monster.
From the blood of the dragon, red roses bloomed. After that, the knight go out from the castle and the king and his daughter were always gratefull.
And that's the story about Sant Jordi, and this day, the 23th of April, all the boys have to give a flower to the grils; and the girls have to give a book to the boys.
I wanted to talk about this iusse because I consider this day very important for all the world, but especially for Catalonia. It's a national holliday here.



I think that the picture shows very well what I've told you, because we can see a rose and a book.
It's the day of LOVE. (L)

The legend of Sant Jordi's so beatiful but.. today anyone know it. Now, the day of Sant Jordi is a day where the shops can sell very much. Initially the boy was bying the red rose and actually the man buy a blue rose or even another object that doesn't have any relation with sant jordi.

Do you think that ctual sant Jordi is really Sant Jordi?
