Yesterday I took part in an awesome, traditional event, which is related to Christmas. It was the first of four Sundays of Advent and it means we should have lit the first candle on the traditional Christmas wreaths. For better imagination have a look here:
Anyway back to an unforgottable, magical experience. A huge, coniferous tree was standing in the middle of the crowded square and was planned to be lit up exactly at 4:30pm. Yes, so early! However, here it is already dark at this time so I know that it might sound little bit weird to some of you. All those impatient, nervous, frozen people had something in common, they were eagerly waiting for one memorable, magical moment. To see the colorful, blinking lights, which decorated this awesome, big tree. It was an incredible, breathtaking second when the lights were turned on and I am looking forward to see it once more again. There are just two minus points: firstly I will have to wait almost for the whole upcoming year and secondly I hope there won't be such chilly weather like yesterday. Let me add that it was "only" -4°C.
Here is the picture of the tree. Source: http://dk-akord.cz/program-kurzy/kalendar-akci/ostatni-akce/rozsviceni-vanocniho-stromu.html My phone is now being repaired, so with the phone I am using now I couldn't have taken any normal picture :-/

wieselai, well it is just sth like pre-christmas time..we celebrate Christmas on December 24th..
Thank you all for comments ;-)
Anah,
thanx for reading it and liking it, there are so many traditons we still try to keep here and I am lately thinking about writing one blog Christams in the Czech republic. Maybe it all might be totally new to many people here.. depends on if sb is gonna be interested in it. Ehm as for once more again - I just wanted to make this again stronger I even dunno why I wrote it, I just felt it like this :-D
Expector,
thanx for your comment and corrections, I swear I was thinking about it, if I should use comma or not - in Czech we use them :-D Anyway, I know this is English. I am glad I broadened your horizons by this post.
Well done, Luci!
I never heard the traditional event. It sounds amazing.
English Tip: You don't need a comma between the two adjectives. You can say "a beutiful young lady" (without a comma between "beautiful" and "young"). But, you can use commas if there are several adjectives in front of a noun, for example, "a lovely, small, round, black handbag".
Luci ...the only way that I'm not going to be depressed anymore if you promised to send me buckets of prizes. LOL ... Otherwise ...... :-P :-P
noas, oh myyyy, chill, girl! Don't you remember one of writing prompts, it was about ADVICE and I made so many mistakes there? :-D come on, it is not end of the world, dear... and btw I saw you using it there..
So, what are you going to give me for this Christmas? LOL. Nice blog. Now you're making me embarrassed for making a big blunder in my blog. :( :( Let me hide behind that big Christmas tree and cry my big fat crocodile tears for such awful attempt in writing challenge.
