Say goodbye to 2013

This year has been a very important one.
So many things have occurred: news, scandals, tragedies... here we have a few of them:

We won’t forget the Boston Marathon, when the day April 15 two bombs exploited while thousands of corridors almost reached the finish. 3 people died, including an eight-year-old boy.

Another tragedy was the derailment of a train in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, where died 79 people, 6 of them in hospitals.

But the one big tragedy occurred in Philippines the day 8 of November. A big typhoon called Yolanda killed almost 10.000 people and left other 15 millions affected.

But there are also good news, like the approval of the homosexual weddings in France, Brazil, NewZealand and Uruguay and many states from the USA.

In Spain two new laws provoked strikes all around the country; the new education law and the abortionlaw.

Lots of important people passed away last year, like the politicians Hugo Chavez (president of Venezuela) or Nelson Mandela (ex-president of South Africa) or the famous actor Paul Walker, the main character of the Fast and Furious saga.

2013 was a great year, with bad things but also with many good things.
Now we say goodbye to the 2013 and welcome the New Year, hoping the best for all of us to start the 2014 with a big smile!
