The national holiday of Chile, is in September 18th, day of the First goverment meeting happened in 1810. In September 18th, chileans do lot of typical things (unlike the rest of the year) and games like "rayuela", "palo encebado" and the popular kite flying. Also chilean people love to eat and drink a lot when the September 18th comes, the family meets in barbacues and they drink grape chicha and wine. Other typical foods are the "empanadas" and the "anticuchos", those foods and drinks can be find in "fondas" or "ramadas", places where the people dance "cueca" or other popular tropical dances. I discovered the September 18th, when I was 8, because only in this year I arrive to Chile. In Colombia, the national holiday is less important, so I was very impress by the magnitude of the feast. But my family never do anything for the September 18th, because this day don't have any importance for my mother, (She's Colombian) for this reason, I just feel this day like another holiday.
I like much the typical foods and drinks and I always try to eat and drink a lot, that is the matter for me.
Nowdays I pass this days with friends having a little holidays.
