Notting Hill

 This is  first and best romantic history I had ever read. Notting Hill is an amazing, interesting and easy  understand  book. The  vocabulary they used  is no  complicate, I learn many synonymous and adjectives of words that I knew.That novel is the exact book that ESL students needs: the context is clear, the history is not too long, good characters, funny and interesting  successes which attract  to  the readers continuing reading to the ends of the history. I really enjoy reading  the book,and refresh my mint when we are in love sometimes with the wrong person like William case ,he is  a normal person and simple owner of travel book shop who is going to have a relationship with a famous person Anna Scott , at this time he star his days and nights with his head in the clouds and preoccupied all his friends for this situation,but his is very fortunately because all of then help him to concrete his relation with the beautiful girl; also, all the characters acting spectacular each of one has the specific rule to do in benefit of the couple. Where we can see the stronger relationship that they have ,I think so it is a good example for everybody to help  each others. I recommend this book for anybody to relax sometimes their stressful days.

Transportation

My favourite way of traveling is by car. I enjoy traveling by car because I'm able too see the beautiful scenery up close. One of the advantages is that , I can get out for the car  and explore what caught my eye, breath the fresh air, stretch my legs, and eat traditional food according to the place. Also, another great advantage if traveling whit all my family we can safe more money,if we were to travel by plane. However, traveling by car has also it is  disadvantages, the trips can  be long and very tiring for the driver even though my husband enjoys very much being our designated driver when ever we go on road trip.There can also be reckless drivers on the road that can make it unsafe for us. 


San Diego Temple

One of my interesting experience in driving was my Christmas trip all the all the way to San Diego  California. We departed from Calgary and past trough Montana, Idaho and arrive at Utah it took us 10 hours, then drove to Nevada , Las Vegas  where we stay a night in the hotel Palazzo. The next day we were off to  Arizona to spend Christmas with my sister and family. After a couple a days of staying Arizona we decided to go to Sea World is San Diego, California where we only stayed there for two days and then went back to Arizona. It was time to return back to Calgary and my husband decided to take a new route on the way back. He took us through Oregon and then Washington where we spent  a day touring around and finally we went reached the boarder and went through British Columbia where we visited family and friends for two days. This Christmas road trip was one of the best car experiences that I have ever had, I enjoyed it very much.

Winter time

   I am really don't have specific favorite season, but in Calgary I love winter time. I like see the snow
specially in the morning when nobody stepts on it. It's looks like a big white sheet covering the land.
When I walk over  the snow I imagine I'm was walking over the clouds, it's very soft and you dodn't get wet like when it's raining. Another good point  is that Alberta is  the only province has the wonderful phenomen called Chinook, it's when  warm winds come and melt the snow, just in this precis moment the snow starts to get dirty. The superficie is ready to be cover  again with another new amount of the snow.  Kids  can play outside, making snowmans, snow angels, and having a snowball fight. Adults can go for snowboarding, skating ,etc. You can see the mountains entirely cover with the snow, it's an  spectacular scenery. Of course that season is cold but you need to wear   appropriate clothing such as, jackets, boots, gloves, toques and enjoy the whitely of the snow and  make your life peacefully during this time.

         Please, No More Crime

    I have been living in Calgary since 2004, I'm very grateful to have the opportunity to live in this beautiful  and safe city. I remembered I used to leave the door unlock whenever I left home and nothing
happened, it was incredible.  Now a days the population of Calgary is growing tremendously and we know when the population increases the problems begin, we hear bad news about assault, robberies or murders. However, Calgary still continues to be a safe city. We can walk anywhere with security, maybe in some places is a little difficult but most of the places are safe, because we can see many security cameras in  public areas for example on the C-train stations, malls, and the police are always on alert. They are doing a really nice job. In my hometown (Lima-Peru) the population is bigger and the main problem is the unemployment percentage that is why many people are a muggers. You can't walk on the streets wearing gold or silver jewelry, also you can't walk around talking on your cell phone because it will be stolen and you can't leave the house alone because they will force the lock and break into the house and steal whatever they want, now most of the communities have a security guards to vigilance and the robbery is less. Do to all these reason, I am happy living here.
