At this time everyone forgets about the problems\nand starts preparing for the New Year. It was from London that such a tradition\nas sending cards came out. The first New Year greeting card was printed in1843\nand leaving it unanswered is not an accepted behavior. In England, Christmas is\nconsidered to be a favorite holiday for everyone. However, with Big Ben in\nLondon. However, the British are flocking to the New Year to see the beautiful\nfireworks, which distinguishes London from a city with many traditions. Imagine\nthe work of Jules Verne \u201cAround the World In 80 Days\u2019\u2019. Mr. Fogg and his friend\nin the New Year. \u201c80 days around the earth\u201d. It is a Jules Verne adventure\nnovel. The book was first published in 1873. The novel describes the journey of\nMr. Fogg, his French servant John Passepourt, around the earth. Hitting a\ncircle for the earth is considered impossible in 80 days. Majesty Queen\nVictoria even steamships can\u2019t do that but punctual Phileas Fogg said it could\norbit the earth in 80 days. Phileas Fogg is a wealthy English man who has no\nfamily. He has a friend-John Passepourt and he is French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Phileas Fogg decided to call his friend to\nmeet together in the New Year. Traditionally New Year was not celebrated as\nwidely as Christmas. However, Phileas Fogg and his friend still visited the\nhigh clock tower called, &#8220;Big Ben\u2019\u2019. They also visited the restaurant,\nwhere they had a lot of fun. They tasted a traditional English goose dish and even\nperformed a New Year\u2019s song (Auld Lang Syne). They sang, danced and decorated\nthe table with their toasts. They would have problems in the future as they got\nolder but that did not stop them from continuing their activities. I celebrate\nThe Georgian New Year in the traditional Georgian way. I put presents for my\nparents on the Christmas tree and I also receive presents from them. I don&#8217;t\nbelieve in Santa Claus because I know that parents leave gifts. Fun and\nmerriment begin at twelve o\u2019clock at night. May Georgia be united in 2022 and\nmay all children have a happy and joyful life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christmas and New Year is one of the most special &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15399,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1926,1925,2017,731,35,1944],"tags":[2156,2161,57,2155,1143,2160,1199,2157,2162],"class_list":["post-15398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-adults","category-articles","category-book-club-online-journal","category-whichbookwouldyouread-bookoftheweek-themes-themeoftheweek-quotes-inspirationalquotes","category-studentnews-didyouknow-facts-interestingwords-interestingpeople-onthisday-interestingwordsandexpressions","category-writing","tag-book-club","tag-book-lovers","tag-books","tag-ebe-blog","tag-new-year","tag-stories","tag-story","tag-the-kings-and-queens-club","tag-wiriting","cat_1926","cat_1925","cat_2017","cat_731","cat_35","cat_1944"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15398"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15398\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15400,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15398\/revisions\/15400"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15399"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
