h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Tis year 2005 is a year in which the Spanish Book about Don Quixote gets full attantion; nationally and internationally.

Websites are created to help people to have a guide for all activities.

I found two websites, who are eally helpful to me, and maybe to you.

That's why I write about in this Jounal of mine.

"400 YEARS FULL OF ADVENTURES AND HEROIC DEEDS BY "THE KNIGHT OF THE SORROWFUL COUNTENANCE"

AN INGENIOUS AND INNOVATIVE CELEBRATION


In 1605, the first edition of El Ingenioso Hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha, the best known piece in Spanish literature, was published.

In this respect, Castilla-La Mancha is responsible for organizing all the events related to the celebration of the IV Centenary. This is a homage to the wit that emerges from the book in every page and also to the dreams and realities reflected in the character "Don Quixote".

This is an open event, as the story related in this book is something almost universal. Even though Don Quixote comes from La Mancha, his story is a heritage we all share. This Centenary aims at motivating society and improving economy with a dynamic approach.

In 2005, the values and principles symbolized by Don Quixote will match today's reality in Castilla-La Mancha. We will make a joint effort to accelerate our development efforts and improve our knowledge of the region.

This IV Centenary is a good opportunity for Castilla-La Mancha to become known in the whole world at all levels (culture, economy and tourism, etc.)"
