Marchas de Lisboa - Lisbon Marches

Journal Entry: Mon Jun 9, 2008, 12:28 PM
Hi!
How are you people?

From the night of 12 of June to 13 of June, it happens the "Marchas de Lisboa".
On 13th of June, it's a holiday in Lisbon. It's dedicated to the "Santo António" or Saint Anthony in english, knowns as the lovers saint.
Some couples get married at the same time on the 12th of June, to celebrate the even dedicated to this saint.
At night the several neighbourhoods of Lisbon compete with themselves, going down the main avenue in Lisbon. Theu choose a theme, write the popular songs and dresses and dance all night, down the avenue.
It takes many hours but it's cool to watch.
Each neighbourhood chooses two Godfathers, a female and a male. Normally they are actors or people known from TV.

Last year one of the Godfather was my favourite actor so I went there, on purpose to met him. And I did.
So this year I will celebrate the first year since I met him. He's such a great actor and a wonderful person, that I feel proud everyday of being his fan/angel.

One of the tradictional things about this event is eat, grilled sardines with bread and also the sweet basil.
Normally they are sold with a paper carnation and with a verse that rhymes, with some cool and funny messages.It has just a pretty smell.
So when you see some sweet basil, just tap your hand on the leaves and smell it... so good!

Have fun!

Kisses
