My Holidays in Valencia

In summer I went to Valencia with my parents, my brother, Didac and Oriol. I stayed in Valncia for 5 days and these days I visited many animals parks. One of these parks is the Biopark. It is an amazing and very big because all of the animals have a large habit. In the park there are many types of animals and I saw a show.

The hotel was very far than Valencia because we just went to the city once. The hotel has four stars and the rooms are big and comfortable. One bad thing was the trip, because it was very long and boring. I left my house at 10:00 a.m and arrived in Valencia at 6:00 p.m.

 

This is the hotel

The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air

The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air was a TV series created in 1990 by Shelley Jensen and starred by Will Smith, James Avery and Alfonso Riberio. This TV series tells the story about Will who his mother have enough money to care about her son and decide to send Will with the uncle who is a lawyer and have a lot of money. The uncle and his family are very posh and Will is a street boy.

When I was ten years I use to saw the series because it's really hilarious and one of my favorites actors is Will Smith. I recommend this series despite being old because it will make you laugh.

This is a scene that went around the world.

The warriors victory on Tuesday extended their perfect start to sixteen consecutive wins. It means the Golden State Warriors have broken the record they previously shared with the 1993-94 Houston Rockets and 1948-49 Washington Capitals.

They still have to break one more record. The Warriors will seek to surpass the record of 33 consecutive victories during a regular NBA season, set by Los Angeles Lakers the year 1972.

If I could be an animal, I would be a eagle

I chose the eagle because it is one of the most wonderful animals. One of the reasons that I chose this amazing animal is basically it can flies. And fly represents be free. Another thing that I would be an eagle is because it is an animal who flies very high and thanks to his great vision it can see the smallest animals at high altitudes. Also the eagle is one of the most faster animal, the golden eagle can reach three thousands kilometres per hour.

This is why I chose the eagle and I don't chose and not another animal.

Paris attack

I know that a lot of people did this news but I want to do it to explain my opinion about the article

If you don't know what hapeness, the news tell us that the friday night's deadly attacks in Paris by gunman and suicide bombers hit a concert hall, a major stadium, restaurants and bars, almost simultaneosly, leaving 129 people dead and hundreds wounded.

President Francois Hollande descibes the attack as an act of war.

French police have carried out more than 150 raids across the country, as the search for suspects continues.

The explosion of the attack also heart in a football stadium while it was playing a game.

Liquid water exists on Mars, boosting hopes for life there

It is a reality, the life-giving water flows cross the ancient surface of Mars and represents that a potential breakthrough in both the search for life beyond Earth and human hopes to one day travel there.

Although the discovery itself does not want to say that nowadays there is life on Mars, it does mean that there was life on Mars.

This water have chemicals and this chemicals allow the water to remain liquid at lower temperatures but also help keep it from boiling off in the thin atmosphere of Mars, the researchers said.

In my opinion, nowadays there isn't life on Mars because we had known but this discovery means that it there was life on Mars and there is life outside Earth,

You Can Now Eat A Jar Of Nutella With Cookies That Fit On Your Fingers

This should be considered major news. After all, it’s not every day we discover a ground-breaking way to eat Nutella.

Today we invent a way to eat easily Nutella without dirtying the fingers. They did a a finger-shaped cookies. Besides, who wants to be pestered with having to settle for overpriced travel snacks when you could just place your index finger in one of these finger-shaped cookies and go to town on a jar of everyone’s favorite food condiment. We could eat Nutella in every place with this cookies.

This way of eating Nutella is more comfortable than before, without ever having to get dirty or clean their fingers or putting dirty fingers in the pot of Nutella.

I really like this song. First, I like the group of music (Train), I love all songs. This song is perfect as the entry of instruments or other things.
The letter of This Song is particularly rare or for example "She Listens like spring and talks like June" or "With drops of Jupiter in her hair". I recommend this song and the group.
