Letter to Mrs. Green
Dear Mrs. Green,
My family and I just got back from vacation at Point Clear, Alabama. We did a lot of water activities like water fights, kayaking, and riding water slides. We had a lot of fun at the bay and the pool.
Every day we would go see a cannon being fired to honor the veterans and the active soldiers. It made a loud noise, but there was no projectile. At the cannon firing, I learned that the hotel we were in was an old hospital. That means lots of people died there which could explain the ghost in the picture my cousin found in the lobby.
How was your vacation? Did you have fun?

Cairo Rugby Tour
Before
We are going to Cairo on Thursday for a rugby tournament. While we are in Cairo, we are going to see the pyramids. There are two kinds of pyramids, the straight-sided pyramid and the step pyramid. We are going to see the Great Pyramid at Giza, a straight-sided pyramid. I hope we see the Sphinx.
Did you know that Lower Egypt is actually in the north? Cairo is in Lower Egypt.

After
We went to Egypt. In Egypt, my brother and I played in a rugby tournament. At the rugby tournament my team and I won first, but my brother’s team came in second. Do you want to know what I got for winning? I got a T-shirt, a medal, and a pyramid, and I will get a picture for the wall.
On the next day we saw the Pyramids of Giza. We even got to see the Sphinx. Be careful there are a lot of beggars. The beggars trick you. They trick you by asking “Can I take the picture?” and you let them and they ask for money.
We took so many planes and buses. We rode five buses and two planes. My brother likes to ride planes just to get the food, but I just like to relax and watch TV, if they have TV’s.

Traveling In The Philippines
Tuesday January 20
We went to Fort Santiago. Fort Santiago is in Manila. There were so many dungeons. The Japanese put the Filipinos and the Americans in the dungeons. At Fort Santiago, we saw Rizal’s furniture and jail cell. Rizal is a Filipino hero who the Spanish shot. Rizal was born on the 19th of June 1861. He wrote a book called Noli Me Tangere and the Spanish got angry.
Thursday January 22
I saw a movie called Bedtime Stories. In Bedtime Stories there was a man that figured out that when the kids tell the story it would come true. It was funny. The guinea pig’s eyes were so big.
Sunday January 25
We visited my great grandparents. They live in Pasig in Manila. I have only one living great grandpa. My grandpa and me are the same height. I am taller than my great grandma. Their house was small like it was one room. My grandpa was a carpenter a long time ago. He built the second floor of his house by himself. I call my grandparents Nanay and Tatay, which means mother and father.

On Chinese New Year we went to Calamba, Laguna. I sang on my great uncle’s karaoke and I got four perfect scores. It is the year of the ox.
Wednesday January 28
We had a blessing at my parent’s office. A blessing is to bless every one to give them good luck at their work. The priest came and splashed holy water in each corner. I had to hold a candle and wax burned my hand. At the blessing my mom threw so many 5 peso coins and I got 255 pesos.
Thursday January 29
I watched a movie called Beverly Hills Chihuahua. In Beverly Hills Chihuahua there was a rich dog. She has a friend that used to be a police dog. He lost his job because he lost his scent. It was very funny. For example a dog said " I never brushed my teeth before it tastes minty. I call it meaty."
Friday January 30
I went to Pixie Forest at the Festival Mall in Alabang. Pixie Forest is an arcade. I played so many games and rode two rides. I played a game called Spin-N-Win and I won199 tickets. My brother and I rode the Elfin Waves. The Elfin Waves is a ride. You sit in a log and go up and down very fast. We got a little wet.

The Global Village in Dubai
BubbleShare: Share photos - Easy Photo Sharing
What is the Global Village?
The Global Village is in Dubai. The Global Village is like a giant mall but it is outside. Also, it is a place that people go to learn about different countries like China, Japan, and India.
Why do people go to the Global Village?
People go to the Global Village
1. To hang out with their family.
2. To learn about different countries.
3. To shop for stuff that you can’t find in the mall.
4. To just have fun with their family.
5. To see the shows from different countries.
6. To go on the rides like the Haunted House.
7. To look around.
8. To eat different food from different countries.
What did we do on our trip to the Global Village?
We ate at the Global Village. We ate Saudi food. It was yummy.
We had fun at the Global Village. My brother and I went on a ride called the Haunted House. It was very scary. One of the scary things was a mummy that was in a cage on the roof. I rode my rollerblades all over the Global Village.
We shopped at the Global Village. In Thailand, I bought a flute and my brother bought a toy. In Kenya, my mom bought a gift for my cousin Jenna and my dad bought some coffee.
We saw five shows at the Global Village. We saw a Ukrainian dance, Chinese girls doing hula-hoop in a show, U.A.E. men dancing & singing, Kenyan musicians, and American water stunts. My favorite show was the water stunts. One of the cool things was a man on fire riding a jet ski.
