It is Christmas time, after school they went to the Christmas Market. They strolled around the market with their mum, and finally they saw an old lady. They approached to her and she was a kind of a fortune teller. Hänsel wished to visit other countries and suddenly there was a strong thundering and lighting. the children got blinded with the light, and when they realized they were in an unknown place still a Christmas market but not the same. There they found a little boy like them. His name was Dratewska. Dratewska's talked to them and invited them to have dinner at his house. They ate dinner following the Polish tradition and after all they went to sleep. Once in bed they dreamt they moved into a new country. Suddenly they wake up in a new town, it is Sa Pobla, in the beautiful island of Mallorca. there is a lot of noise in the streets and all the boys and girls are going up and down, laughing and having fun. Magically, it turns to be the 16th of January. In Sa Pobla there is a big festival the 17th of January, it is Saint Anthony's day.
