9 мая - День победы Союза Советских Социалистических Республик над нацисткой Германией в Великой Отечественной Войне.

I love New Year, beacouse It`s not about politics, religion or crap like that, it`s just a good family holiday.

I love the festivity of the Fourth of July, or Independence Day, here in America. Fireworks everywhere, sometimes for days! There is also great outdoor music from brass bands. Everyone has picnics, which are outdoor meals with many different kinds of food and barbequed food cooked on grill or in similar ways. It's a great summertime holiday. But Thanksgiving, celebrated just before December, based on a tradition that religious migrants to this continent gave thanks that they had been able to grow and produce their own food, may be even better. Besides the eating of warm, delicious foods, it is a traditional time similar to the Lunar New Year in Asia, where families travel long distances to be together. Some of my best memories are from this time, and from sharing it with others when I am away from my family. It is a very special holiday in America. So, two favorites for me! And, something quite strange. Traditionally, turkey is served as the main meat on Thanksgiving. I have only had it roasted in the oven until I moved to Denver. My home was in Boston, very near to where the religious migrants, the "pilgrims," landed in their ship. Here in Denver, they put the turkey in a big pot of boiling oil, and "deep fry" it, adding flavors, too! Delicious, but very strange. I guess there are always regional differences.

A VICTORY DAY. May 1945. The Great World War II. The victory of Soviet Union above fashism.

oh, it's great. i want to be this holydays & to try turkey. I hope i do it in future.
