Round trip

Hi class mates, hi Richard. I'd like to be there, and I know that I didn't said good bye to everyone. But I'll be back (I promise it) I'll be there in a month. I'm shure that I'm going to miss all you, and my class of course.
But I'll be writtin on the blog. Just something incredible happened me today.
I'm in Phoenix, Arizona. I'm writing from the Sheraton Hotel. why I'm here??? this is what happened.
I just flu from Oakland to Phoenix, Arizona to transfer the plane. I'm going to my country (Mexico). But when I was here (Phoenix), traying to get into the airplane, the people from the airline saids:
"We need a volunteer to state tonight here in Arizona, because the airplane is full, So, we are going to give him accomodations, a seat in first class to fly tomorrow at the same destination, and free miles to travel in our airline"
So, when a listened that she said free miles, I run to her and I said her "I want to do it".
I wasn't shure about how many miles she was talking about, but the offert was very tempting.
That's what I'm sitting here, in the Sheraton Hotel, with a beatifull room, and with a round trip to travel to any part of the American Continent, any day of the year. Free!!!!!!!

Hi, Classmates!

My name is Abraham.

I am going to write a story on the blog very soon.

Hawaii


Aloha everybody!
Sorry, teacher, I broke the rule: "24/7 english", but I am going to tell you about my trip to Hawaii so I wanted to create the right atmosphere...
I went there two weeks ago and I spent there one week traveling around the island of Oahu and laying in the sun in the desperate attent to get tan.
The island is beautiful, the vegetation is gorgeous and the sea is a splash of tourquoise tempera. The hills look like they have just come out from the center of the Earth, sharp and with black rocks of solid lava. They are completely coverd by a blanket of amazing trees, with vines and red spots of tropical flowers. It's simply an earthly Paradise!
Unfortunately in the southern isand this wild landscape is ruined by the big buildings of Honolulu and Waikiki and by a huge mass of tourists.
I think tourists are one of the weirest kind of creatures in the World. They crowd together in the same places, doing the same things, taking the same pictures, buying everything they find on their way that they think it's really original and typical of the place. You can see people wearing all kind of different flower patterns, put all together in a confusing and eyesore tropical mix-up.
A part from that, I really enjoyed my time in Hawaii doing a lot of activities such surfing, kayaking and boogie boarding. I like to live in the nature, to walk in the forrest's shadow, to feel the warmth of the sand and the sun or to enjoy the color of the sea. It just fills me of happiness!
Obviously, during my trip I kept on my research on "Pubblic restroom's keys in the US"...Take a look at what I found at the Kayak shop! I have to conclude that every place in the US has its most fitting restroom key (that's why in the library they have a torture instrument...) !

SAD STORY

Hi again!

Something that I enjoy doing is going to the gym. Usually, my husband goes to lift weights and I go to the cardio class. Two Months ago, my husband and I went to the gym and I went to the crossramp machine, on my left side was a guy working too.

Everything was OK, until, the guy who was on my left side stoped doing his cardio class, then I saw him fall down on the floor and he started to suffocate.

People started to crowed around him. Later, the ambulance came and took him away, but it was to late, he had now pasted away of heart attack.

A couple of days ago while I was in the steam room, I heard a couple of people talking about what had happened that day.They were saying who was the name of the guy who pasted away.

After that, I told my husband who was the name of the guy who pasted away and my husband get sad. I felt so bad, because I knew he was a really good friend of my husband.

My husband had knew his friend died, but he did not know that he died in the same gym we go to.

You know? Is good go to the gym and make exercise, you can be in good condition, health and have a good shape, but is not so good when you execed. =(

Cayman

I am Cayman

I am Cayman. Two years ago you couldn’t have seen me. I am Porsche and Boxster made in Germany. I am always a great favorite with people. I am a beautiful color that sparkles, glistens, and shines. I am deep blue.

I have a small body and cute shape. I have two doors, two seats and two spaces for baggage. One baggage space is in front of the car, and the trunk is behind the car. They look small, but they can hold a lot of things for you.

I had only visited a few cities and none that were very far from my home. A lot of time I just slept in the garage. I felt solitary. One day I decided to travel around the country. I spent 18 days enjoying it.

Now, when I think about it, I still feel excited.

The first good thing was, wherever I waited, people stared at me and said, “Hi, beautiful guy and good guy.”

The second good thing was wherever I went the view was pretty. The countryside was beautiful. The sun was shining. The sky was clear. The space was extensive. The weather was comfortable. No car exceeded me. I was number one. Every thing was wonderful!

Who created all of this?

This is the Yosemite:


This is the Death Valley:


This is the Zion Canyon:




This is the Bryce Canyon:






This is the Bryce to the Arches:


This is the Grand Canyon:
