Remember Me
Lesson Introduction

Holidays are family time. Sometimes in big families it means a lot of work, planning, organizing and running to and from the airport. But what would life be like without all of the excitement (and stress) of the holidays?

Question of the day:

¿Cuáles son sus planes para Navidad?

What are your plans for Christmas?

Yo me quedo en China, me voy a Beijin a pasar la Navidad. 

I stay in China. I am going to Beijin to spend Christmas.

Este año es la primera vez que mi esposa y yo no vamos a viajar para visitar a nuestras familias. Pero, por lo menos, la madre de mi marida va a visitarnos. No vamos a estar completamente sin familia.

Liliana, ¿Es difícil estar en china durante los feriados? Y ¿cómo se dice "Are you going home for the holidays?" - Regresas a casa para los feriados? Is that correct?

Temporadas saludos a la comunidad SpandishPod.

I will be doing the same thing that i do every Christmass. Eat too much, drink too much, and generally making a pig of myself. But I will also make sure that i 'check-in' with SpanishPod from time to time.

Seasons greetings to the SpanishPod community.

North Kirra.

Mi familia tiene una tradición de veinticinco años para reunirse con otras tres familias para dar adornes del árbol de Navidad, a cada uno de los nueve niños en las familias. Dos de los niños ahora están casados y uno tiene un hijo propio. Mi hijo mayor será el único que no puede venir este año. Él está en China y se unará a nosotros por Skype para abrir su adorno. Liliana haya visto más recientemente que yo. Estaba en la oficina de SpanishPod la semana pasada para entrevistar a uno de los instructores chinesepod para un artículo de la revista.

Veo copos de nieve afuera.  Está empezando a parecerse mucho a la Navidad.

My family has a 25 year tradition to gather with three other families to give Christmas tree ornaments to each of the 9 children in the families.  Two of the children are now married and one has a child of his own.  My oldest son will be the only one who can't come this year.  He is in China and will join us via Skype to open his ornament.  Liliana may have seen him more recently than me.  He was at the spanishpod office last week to interview one of the chinesepod instructors for a magazine article.

I see snowflakes outside... It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

Esta es la primera ves que voy a pasar la Navidad en este país. No es lo mismo, porque no hay tantas tradiciones aquí como en mi país.

Puedes decir...regresas a casa para los días festivos?

Feliz Navidad!!!
