"The Ethiopian New year, is a family and community gathering festival where families and friends, the elderly and the young, and others from all walks of life will gather to celebrate Ethiopian New Year. ENKUTATASH, which means the "gift of jewels", is an important festival in the lives of Ethiopians and its celebration dates back since the days of Queen Sheba. After three months of heavy rain, spring comes creating a beautiful clear fresh atmosphere in Ethiopia. The highlands turn to be gold as the daisies burst to into flower. Ethiopians welcome their New Year in festivities with food at the center surrounded by family and friends." - http://www.ecssanjose.org/
