Descripción: Adventures in Rapelo - Chapter 5 - The Festival of Colours. Audiobook (Basic level).
Rapelo was known for its vibrant festivals, and the most anticipated one was the Festival of Colours. Natalia and Claudia had heard marvelous stories about it and were thrilled to participate for the first time.
The festival took place in the village square, which was beautifully decorated with colourful banners and ribbons. The villagers gathered, wearing bright clothes, and carrying baskets of colourful powder. The atmosphere was joyous as everyone threw the powder into the air, creating a mesmerizing rainbow of colours.
Natalia and Claudia joined in the fun, smearing each other's faces with different shades of powder. They danced, laughed, and made new friends during the celebrations. The twins couldn't believe how much happiness a splash of color could bring to everyone's lives.
