England can't denny it's celtic heritage.
On November 5th, there's a tradition to celebrate the Guy Fawkes festival. Back in 1605, after Elizabeth I dies, an attempt by the Catholics to kill James I was made. This group planned to blow the house of parliament with 36 barrels of gunfire.
They were not successful, the plot was discovered, and Guy Fawkes, their lieder captured, torturated and killed
England celebrates their independence of Rome, their freedom to choose their own path. And they celebrate as a big parade, with processions, fires and in the night.
The biggest festival is going in Lewes, where I went.
A big parade, fancy dresses, beers, fires, a very good experience to live.
A small video with some of the party
The irish and scotish spirit
Then, the night was lighted up, a big fire was made.
And fireworks to close this fun and amazing festival.
