This is my homework.
I went on a journey to Mars, it took 8 hours to get there.
Hi Caroline, I hope you are well,and We miss you.
This is my homework.
I want to talk about the most beautiful journey I had.
It was in 2002, when I graduated from high school with a good grade. As a gift from my dad, he awarded me and my family to go on a journey to Turkey.
‘Two days to go’ said my young brother, with a feeling full of excitement. On the 25th of September 2002, we started packing our luggage getting ready for our journey. It was hot and sunny at 1:00pm when we first arrived Istanbul. We then unpacked our stuff at the hotel and relaxed from our flight. I was so excited to go out and see this city that I always wanted to visit. I took my camera and started wondering around, taking photos with my family, eating Turkish food and desserts, which I really liked. I wont forget the Turkish ice cream that I had which they call ‘Dundorma’. It was really delicious.
The people were really kind and easy going, they were also happy to help us out to go to any place we wanted to go to. The buildings were really beautiful; the view of a lake called ‘Marmara’ was outstanding especially during sunset.
On the next day we arranged a boat trip with different kind of people from different backgrounds, where I was listening to different opinions from them about turkey, then we went to the market to shopping, we bought a lot of things. On the next day we went to Azmeer for two days, it was very beautiful country.
Finally, we went back to the hotel to pack our stuff getting ready to go back home. We have arrived the capital Amman and got ready to sleep, but then I decided to have a look at the pictures I took during my journey. I enjoyed in this journey it was wonderful.
If you haven’t visited It, you should to visit It.
take care, and enjoy in your journey.
Dear Caroline,
I hope you are enjoying your time and would come back soon. Here is my homework that I submit to you.
‘My trip to Azerbaijan’
I want to describe the first trip that I had with my in-laws’. We travelled to Azerbaijan by plane in summer. This is a small country near the Caspian Sea. On the day of starting the trip we got up early in the morning and we had a one hour journey by taxi to ‘International Imam Khomeini’ airport experiencing a heavy traffic on the way. After arriving to the airport we checked in our luggage and received our boarding cards. One hour later they announced to refer to the gate for boarding. When the airplane took off I was looking down to Tehran to see that how big it is! Our flight journey took about one hour and thirty minutes. After landing and reclaiming our luggage we went to the apartment we had rented. In the afternoon we went to sea side and had coffee and spend a good time together. During our stay we had a few journeys to some areas that were located near mountains and forests. We stayed there only for one week but we learned a lot of things about Azerbaijani culture. On return day we prepared our suitcases and went to the airport to fly to Iran. During the flight I was looking to the blue see from over and sun that was shining beautifull
Hello from Russia!!

It's very nice place with big sea and many many "TROPICAL FRUIT"I like the fruit.

People in HaiNan their like fruit and their like cooking delicious food.
They use fresh fruit to cook,maybe
you'll feel so surpise,but I'll tell you it's very delicious,they use coco to boil rice,they use cokernut's husk to pack the vegetable.Smell is special,it's sweet and spicy.
We try "Hai Nan chicken"it's so smooth and juicy.
I like the sea,it's a big sea,only in the movice you can see,but now is before my eyes.The color it's a blue but not a bule like green.It's very clean you can see many kind of fish was swimming inside.
HAHA..
It took us three to stay here,you can ride the camel on the overslaugh,I think when the sun was down it's the nice time.Romantic.

I would like talk about my first time journy in Britain.Two weeks ago I went to Stratford Upon Avon with my friends .It's place is famous for Shakespeare Birthplace.
Shakespeare was bore in 1564. There are a lotof places remembered in connection with him and Middle Ages row of houses and streets. I and my friends were so excited when we saw his birthplace because the house is so pretty Middle Ages and it's leand sightly and doors don't shut. All my friends are Japanese so everyone was worry about Earhquakes. At once we remembered that here is British. Because in Japan there are a lot of Earthquakes .If it is happened ,the leaning houses will fall down in a minute. Anyway, we were enjoying appreciateing his house ,streets and lake. This is good experience I hope to go alot of pleases.
This is my homework. Please enjoy your journey.

I want to write about one of the most fascinating journeys I had in my life.
When I graduated from high school, my father decided to take my brother and me in nice long journey to Italy. So in the travelling day we got up early because our flight was in the morning, my brother drive us to the airport, at that time I was so happy. We took our luggage to the check in next we wait just few minute and then we started boarding to the plane. Italy was not very far from my country, so I didn’t feel the time it just like I close my eyes and then I opened them to find myself in Rome.
First of all, after we arrived to Rome we went to the hotel to put our luggage and to start our day in Italy, the hotel itself was amazing with gallery, sculpture and the Romanian design.
We went to many wonderful places where shows ancient Rome, also we visit Castisant Angelo it’s one of Rome’s outstanding architecture building, which was gorgeous and the world’s famous fountain, that called Trevi fountain, it is an enormous fountain and so beautiful with all the statues I just loved really. And the food was so delicious especially the pizza, as well as the ice cream with so many flavour, which hard to choose so you have to try them all.
Anyway we stayed in Italy for a week after that we went to another country, but wasn’t interesting like Italy. Italy is an awesome place to visit. You know they said if you throw a coin in the fountain you will be guaranteed to return to Rome, and that’s true because after one year I went back again.

I want to write about my last journey with my family to London by train it took only2.30 hours to get there.
At 7,10 am I arrived to Piccadilly station by taxi it took just 10 minutes from my home .I had already booked by Internet , then I had only taken my ticket from fast machine . I waited only 10 minutes .Then I got on train and found place to me and my family. I sat next the window I was interesting with my children to look to beautiful scenery same as; the fields and farm house of England .However the weather was levelly, the sun was shining .
I arrived to destination on time then I picked up my luggage and I went to hotel by taxi. When I arrived to hotel I had rest a little bet then I went to visited a famous land marks on London such as; BigBen ,London eye ,Buking ham place .Next day I went to shopping in Harrods and in oxford Road then I came back at the end of day by train, I was sleeping during the joinery.
Overall, London is an exciting place to visit because it has so many attractions to offer. I got to see a different city and I had many entertaining experiences.
My first journey to Dubai on Oct 05, we spent two weeks at the Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort. Flew with Emirates, direct from Riyadh - and we were met by a rep and then privately chauffeured from the airport in one of the hotels cars. It was so hot my glasses steamed up as I moved from the airport to the outside car park. Our whole holiday was a Total pampering experience.
Shops and hotel restaurants open very late 11-12pm, so we can beach, shop, Eat, Party and still miss the rush hours. No-one has mentioned that if we travel during rush hour then the taxi keeps adding up. Less money for that fake gents watch 50 dhs or less depending our bargaining powers.
Prices, we found that the prices were similar to home
Food, the soft drink was 1 dhs and the meal was 18dhs .
Walking, the humidity is very high in June, it was for us in Oct and this is almost low season. No-one walked out side the hotel unless for a taxi/bus. Building works all around Dubai prevent this. There are no pavements in most places along the beach road. We can walk along the beaches from one hotel to another but beware of the sun. We needed hat and used very high sun cream but still managed to get a little burnt while staying too long in the very warm sea. Strange sun. The wind is deceptive so we do not feel our self burning. The hotel pools are cooler as they are temperature controlled.
We had asked for a high room with sea view as all other views will be of cranes and building work and we won’t see anything for dust. They complete a floor per day. I have never seen so many high rise buildings.
Security - A very safe country.
Tipping: 3dhs to 6dhs seemed to be aound the normal unless we pay one lump sum eg to our room boy/butler at the end of our stay. Note that gratuities are included in our bills.
Notice £1 = 7dhs
Dear Caroline,
I hope you are enjoying in your time. We really miss you in the class.
About two years ago. I went to Isle of Wight with my family and some other friends. Isle of Wight perfect for on holiday. We took four hours by car we saw of The window river, mountain, farmhouses. hills and some flowers. The journey was interesting . And under full. After we arrived, we went to reception to take caravan day and got same rest. After that we went to a very big park there are train round in the park, some animals and play ground. One day we went to a beach which is very beautiful and we relaxed and had a BBQ. Another day we went to farm which there are activities such as feeding and drinking animals also some play ground. Also, we went to cave we saw strange things such as old skulls of man and woman, stalactites which hang from the roofs of cave and the stalagmites which extend up ward from the cave floor. One day we went to castle with it's magnificent views.
Isle of Wight is very interesting and great place to spend nice Time. I'm sure any body goes to this place will be not sorry.

An amazing journey with my friends
One day during the summer I and my friends decided to travel to Beirut. We had heard a lot about it that it’s an extremely beautiful city with a huge green mountains and it’s clearly weather. Finally we travelled by plane, it took around two hours to arrive. After landing to the airport we took the bus to the city center to discover how it looks like. Then every one of us started to enter a store to buy some stuff and taking pictures. After this we went to book on a hotel with 5 stars to but the stuff that we have bought and to change our clothes because we decided to rent a speed boat around the sea. Then we took the speed boat around the city and I prepared myself to start fishing. Then we back to the hotel to have dinner together and to sleep. Generally the next day was shining with humidity. We went to the cinema to see a modern comedy film with romance. After the movie have finished, we went to the gym for practicing and swimming, then we went to play some billiards and table tennis. In addition to that I’m a professional player in table tennis so I win against my friends in every match. The third day was the most fabulous night during this journey because one of my Lebanese friends invited me to his birthday. He brought a skillful deejay and all of us were dancing and clapping all the time. After all we cut the cake together and we were celebrating and having fun. The fourth day we back to our country. In fact all of us had an amazing moments in this trip and hopefully we will travel to another country in the next summer.
Best Wishes - Nasser.
