Our last celebration

All saint’s day, in Martinique is a day to commemorate, wash tombs and light candles.

On All Saints’ Day, the people that celebrate this day go to the family tomb to wash it to have a very nice tomb in the cemetery.  Then they bring flowers and candle and meditates on November 1st.

As for me, I went to another town in Martinique named Diamant. It’s one of the nicest town in Martinique. It is famous in all the Caribbean thanks to its big rock in the middle of the sea.

For All Saints' Day , usually people go to church to pray.

 They go to the cemetery, they bring flowers and candles on the tomb of their relatives.

 All the families meet there to spend some time together.

 Personally I didn't do anything for the day because for some people, All saint's day is  a day like the other days, for me too.

  For All Saints Day, first of all, I went to church , then I went to the cemetery and my family and I went home to spend the rest of the day together.

     My holiday was very quiet. I spent my time on my computer, listened to some music and I also tried to improve my English with different websites.

     I spent some time with my family, shared good moments. I also celebrated my birthday with them, it was amazing .
