 MY SUMMER HOLIDAYS

WRITING: MY SUMMER HOLIDAYS

Hi, my name is Helena and now I'm talking about my summer holidays. First I'm going to talk about my trip in Jonquera with my friends. Second in Port Aventura with my family, and finally about Estartit.

JONQUERA:

In Jonquera I went to camp with my friends: Esther, Laia, Julia and Mireia. I was there for 9 days. Every day we were up at 8:30 because we had to go at 9 to breakfast room. During the day we did games together, went to the woods, on the trail, we bathed the evening ... We were going to bed at 23:00 pm every day and whenever we did a night game.

PORTAVENTURA:In PortAventura one day I went with my dad, my sister, my brother and two of my brother's friends. There I climbed went up to many rides and what I liked most was the Shambala. The Shambala five time.

ESTARTIT:

This year I went to Estartit for 3 weeks. Every year I enjoy it because I have an apartment where there is a pool and we have the sea in front. There are a bunch of friends and we always go everywhere together. What I liked this year is when we went on a beach for a walk all the kids alone.

Thank's for listening for me.

AROUND AUSTRALIA IN 33 DAYS

Get ready to visit Australia with two French boys, Félix and Marius and their family. They spent one month exploring the country-its beaches, its cities, its deserts and its strange animals. What an adventure!

FRASER ISLAND

On our first day we took the ferry to Fraser Island, where you can go whale-watching. It was incredible to see whales next to our boat. We also hired a Jeep to visit the island and its beaches. But we couldn't swim: the water was cold and had lots of sharks!

SYDNEY 

In three days we visited Sydney's botanic gardens, the aquarium, the beach, the Harbour Bridge and the famous Sydney Opera House. But the Australian Museum was the best part...we saw real boomerangs.

AYERS ROCK (ULURU)

We took a small plane to Ayers Rock. It's in the middle of the desert with just one hotel, a shop and a petrol station. Ayers Rock is a giant rock formation-we saw it at 6am in the morning and the colours were amazing.

ALICE SPRINGS

The best part of our trip to Alice Springs was the hot-air balloon. At 5am we took a bus to Alice Springs and got on the balloon with the pilot and 13 other passengers. The views were superb and we saw 19 kangaroos. But we didn't take photos of them-they were too fast!

BRUNO MARS

 


2012 was a busy year for Bruno Mars. The singer from Hawaii became an international star and played concerts around the world. Bruno released his first album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, in 2010. Bruno is a talented musician: he grew up in a musical family and plays drums guitar, keyboard, bass, piano and harmonica. His second album, Unorthodox Jukebox, is sure to be a hit!

ROBOT SERVICE

The robots are coming! However, unlike many science-fiction stories, where they want to destroy the planet, these robots only want to serve you food. This high-tech restaurant in Harbin, China, has 18 different types of robots each costing over $30.000, inclugding chefs, singers and waiters. Some can even speak Chinese! The only question is do you still need to leave a tip?

A MEMORABLE DAY

I remember my sister's birthday five years ago. It was a very memorable day. First, my friends I came with my home. At 11 o'clock go to Estartit with my friends, after that we went to apartment. We had a lunch and after I did the party of my sister, the party started about 4 o'clock . Finally, I went home.
There were about a ten poeple at the party. I remember my mother because she had a very beautiful rings. It was really fun day I felt very happy.
