过节是非常令人开心的事情。

Guòjié shì fēicháng lìng rén kāixīn de shìqíng.

Celebrating Festivals is a very joyous thing.

我们在青岛看一看，这里有没有节日气氛。

Wǒmen zài qīngdǎo kàn yī kàn, zhè li yǒu méiyǒu jiérì qìfēn.

Let's take a look around Qingdao to see if there is a festive atmosphere here.

路旁的大树上挂满了彩色的灯, 使街道显得温暖而明亮。

Lù páng de dà shù shàng guà mǎnle cǎisè de dēng, Shǐ jiēdào xiǎndé wēnnuǎn ér míngliàng.

Big trees next to the road are hung with colorful lights, making the streets look warm and bright.

天气有一点冷所以街道上的行人并不是很多。

Tiānqì yǒu yīdiǎn lěng suǒyǐ jiēdào shàng de xíngrén bìng bùshì hěn duō.

The weather was a bit cold so there weren't many people on the streets.

那边的教堂在暮色的映衬下显得格外的庄严。

Nà biān de jiàotáng zài mùsè de yìngchèn xià xiǎndé géwài de zhuāngyán.

The church over there looks particularly solemn against the backdrop of dusk.

这家蓝色咖啡屋的墙上还写着一句非常浪漫的话：遇见你是我故事的开始。

Zhè jiā lán sè kāfēi wū de qiáng shàng hái xiězhe yījù fēicháng làngmàn dehuà：Yùjiàn nǐ shì wǒ gùshì de kāishǐ

There is a very romantic sentence written on the wall of this blue coffee shop：Meeting you is the beginning of my story.

伴随着悠扬的歌声我么来到了美食节。

Bànsuízhe yōuyáng de gēshēng wǒ men lái dàole měishí jié

Accompanied by melodious songs, we made our way to the food festival.

这位女士正透过镜头向大家介绍这里的美食。

Zhè wèi nǚshì zhèng tòuguò jìngtóu xiàng dàjiā jièshào zhèlǐ dì měishí

This lady here is introducing the local delicacies to everyone through the camera.

要说最让我印象最深刻的，应该是这对穿着中式服装的夫妻。

Yào shuō zuì ràng wǒ yìnxiàng zuì shēnkè de, yīnggāi shì zhè duì chuānzhuó zhōngshì fúzhuāng de fūqī

I think I’d say what impressed me most had to be this couple in Chinese costumes.

他们站在圣诞树前，向我们展示了中西方文化的完美结合。

Tāmen zhàn zài shèngdànshù qián, xiàng wǒmen zhǎnshìle zhōng xīfāng wénhuà de wánměi jiéhé

They stood in front of the Christmas tree, showing us the perfect combination of Chinese and Western cultures.

我喜欢圣诞节。我也喜欢所有的节日。

Wǒ xǐhuān shèngdàn jié. Wǒ yě xǐhuān suǒyǒu de jiérì

I love Christmas. I love all holidays.

祝大家节日快乐！希望所有人在新的一年里平安健康幸福如意。

Zhù dàjiā jiérì kuàilè！ Xīwàng suǒyǒu rén zài xīn de yī nián lǐ píng'ān jiànkāng xìngfú rúyì

Wishing all of you Happy Holidays! I hope everyone will have a safe, healthy, happy and prosperous in the new year.
