The Beach at Night (Fran Barba)

My favourite place is the beach at night. During the day there are too many people and there's too much noise but at night it's the perfect place to walk quietly and it helps me to think.

At night it's a very quiet place with the only sound of the waves breaking on the shore.

Majorca has many beaches but most of them are for tourism and they have been modified to be bigger or just more confortable for the tourists. But there are also beaches that are in secluded places, they are difficult to find, and I think this makes them very beutiful because they have not been modified by human beings and they are very quiet and have something special that makes them beautiful.

In front of my home I have a very big beach. In the past that beach was smaller but i was modified to be able to receive more tourists and now it's very big with a lot of sand and no rocks. At night I usually walk through it, but it is not a quiet place because the street is very close and there's always noise coming from the cars, from the pubs or just from drunk people :/

Description of a place (Andrés Pozo)

Have you guys ever considered visiting France?

Paris is known as the "City of Lights" and is a magnificent and romantic place to visit.
I visited Paris two years ago with my school. Paris is a big and busy city, where you can find all sorts of stuff to do! It also has a great climate and the most beautiful scenery in the world. There are also a lot of important landmarks that one should visit if there, such as the Eiffel tower.
When you reach the top you feel like the king of the world and the views are just fascinating, you can see the whole city. But the views are even more impacting at night just when the sun starts coming down and the lights turn on.
Another thing that a like about Paris is that it’s very cultural. It has all type of museums that you can visit. It its center you can find one of the world’s biggest and most important museums: the Louvre. It is huge! Not even a week is enough for you to visit all the different monuments and paintings in its interior. If you don’t like museums you can visit other places such as the cathedral of Notre dame.
Learn about its legend and walk thousand of stairs up the tower to where the great bell is.
Paris is very exciting. But it can also be calm and peaceful. You can always find a nice hotel resort to relax and enjoy Paris in a different way!

If you ever get the chance to visit this lovely city, don’t think twice!

Narrative (Javier Gonzalez Aylman)

The best moment in my life was when I went to Paris with my classmates in 4 E.S.O. We didn´t know very well where we would go: Berlin, Paris, London.., In conclusion, we had many possibilities to travel. Finally we chose Paris, because more people hadn´t been in Paris and it seemed a very nice city.
When we left the airport I felt the usual "butterflies in the stomach" and I was very happy because I had never been abroad. When we arrived to Paris, I took some photos because I was really excited.
Then we took a bus to the hotel. I do not remember the name of the hotel, but I know it was a 4 star hotel. I shared a room with Fran. Whenever I break something, Fran repaired it. Everyone was hungry so we went to eat a kebab in front of the hotel. This kebab was very delicious but it was a bit expensive. We spent five days in Paria and visited the most important landmarks: Eiffiel tower, the Louvre, the Seine river ...the conclusion is that I took a lot of pictures of those beautiful monuments.
I didn´t want to leave Paris because I liked the city, but like all good things, everything has an end. When we returned to Majorca, I uplodaded my photos on my computer . Later my parents asked me about Paris and I spent the afternoon talking with them about that city.
In the future I would like to return to Paris.

The start of an obsession....(by Cristofer Sánchez)

...To dicover the space beyond the earth and our solar system

It all started when I was a little boy ( 4-6 years old). I really liked looking at the sky at night and I used to ask my parents about the shiny points in the vast night sky in my little village, and they only said to me “those shiny points in sky are only stars”, and that answer was not sufficient for me.

Night after night I used to look at the stars and the moon, asking myself what the stars could be, and I started to ask my school mates and teachers “what are the stars?” One of my best teachers told me something that was quite interesting for me.

He said: “The stars are suns, comets, galaxies, solar systems and other kind of things I don’t know”...
That awoke inside of me a really ambitious feeling, “to know what those stars were in reality and what they were doing up there in the dark sky”.

Sometime after, my parents gave me a birthday present, a present which I still have, my first Astronomy book. With that book I learnt all about “stars” , and I could understand where I live, where our planet, the earth, was located , and lots of things about our solar system. I also learnt about galaxies, other solar systems, planets, suns, nebulae (or nebulas), comets, and so on.

And that ambitious curiosity was the reason why I am still interested in the space and the
galaxies and I can feel I am still a curious boy who wants to know everything about outer space...
Like observing the moon and all the mysterious things connected to it...

An obsession I would like to satisfy now and in the future...

Learning to ride a bike (by Pedro Capó)

My parents didn't help me to learn how to ride a bike. My grandfather did.
When I was a child I really liked my grandfather’s bike and I wanted to ride it, but there was a problem, I had never ridden a bike in my life.
Then, one day, my grandfather helped me and put me on the bike, the bike had only two wheels not four. I tried to ride the bike with my grandfather holding me. We expend all the day trying it. And at nigh I managed to ride the bike without help.
On Christmas my parents gave me a bike, but with four wheels. I told them that I had learned to ride a bike only with two wheels, but they didn’t believe me.

Two weeks after we went to visit my grandparents and my father told them that I had a new bike, then my grandfather asked:

-With four or two wheels?
And my father said:
-With four wheels of course.
My grandfather looked at me and asked me:
- Why didn't you tell them you know how to ride a bike?
And I answered angrily:
-I told them, but they didn’t believe me.
The day after I found my bike with only two wheels.
