夏も終わり色づく季節となりました。メル講師がイギリスの秋について書いてくれています。日本同様きれいな紅葉も見られ、冬眠支度する動物たち、秋のイベント、風習や伝統的な食べ物それぞれにイギリス独特の秋を感じられましたか?また、日本との違いや他の国との違いを見つけられましたか?

The Summer is finally over and the temperature is cooling.
It is 18 degrees in my hometown now and 28 degrees here.
Let's look at the U.K. in Autumn.
The leaves change colour of course. On a traditional English home it looks beautiful!
This is a thatched cottage covered in ivy.
Isn't it pretty?

During autumn, animals that hybernate come out to look for food to last them through winter.
This is a hedgehog.
It wakes up sometimes to have a snack but will sleep from the end of Autumn until Spring.
Isn't it cute?

We have many festivals in the U.K. over Autumn.
You all know about Halloween.
It is thought that Halloween comes from a Celtic festival for the dead.
Collecting candy by saying "Trick or Treat" is an American tradition. In the U.K. we are more likely to lock the door and tell ghost stories to each other in the dark.
Very scary!

We do have toffee apples but they are apples covered in toffee not candy.
They are sticky and the toffee doesn't fall off as you bite it!
This is a very traditional Autum food in The U.K.
Doesn't it look delicious?

I hope you stay warm over autumn and enjoy it as much as I do!
