December 7


Today is Pearl Harbor Day in the USA.  The USA began fighting in World War II because Hawaii was bombed by Japan.


I haven't seen the movie that goes with the next video.  Have you?




For me, December 7 is the day that lives in infamy, but people from other places think of other things.
Sylvia said that December 7 is "Candle Day" in Colombia.  People get the day off work,  Everyone in the family lights a candle, and you can see many beautiful candles in the neighborhood.  In the Catholic church, people celebrate the Virgin Mary's conception on December 7.

Do you like to study history?   What past times are the most interesting for you? 
Are there dates that your country commemorates?
