We arrived in Bodrum on the 29th of July. It`s a nice cosy place. It is in south-west of Turkey. The first thing I noticed was the houses and buildings. The houses and buildings must be white. The local government don`t allow any colours except white. Also the buildings don`t have to more than two floors. I think Bodrum is the best place for summer holiday. It is near the Aegean Sea. Normally, Aegean Sea is part of the Mediterranen Sea, but people who live in Turkey and Greece call Aegean Sea.  The sea is very clean. While you swim, you can see ground of the sea and fish. Bodrum has lots of ancient places like anti-theatre, sarcophagus, aqueduct, castles, windmill, museum of underwater archaeology etc. Many of them was built on Ancient Greek times. The city was called Halicarnassus of  Greek ancient times. After 16. century, the city depended on Ottoman Empire.  From beginning of 20. century until now, it depends on Turkey.

We arrived on Shanghai in September 23th, 2010. At first, I felt that it was very busy and dirty city. Shanghai is the largest city in China, it has improved since 1978 when the Chinese government started innovation. Nowadays, it has become the economic centre of the world.
I went to the Shanghai exposition. There were many kinds of pavilion, and very beautiful, exotic, and exiting performances were going on. The first impression I felt for Shanghai was dirty, but I felt the pavilions were very clean. But, unfortunately, I dropped my digital camera on the ground as soon as I arrived at Shanghai!

We arrived in Istanbul last week. It's the biggest city in Turkey, nearly 20 million people live in there. There are a lot of cars on the street all the time. First we went to Topkapi Palace. It was built 600 years ago and Ottoman Sultans lived here. It was so old and historic. After that we went to Dolmabahce Palace. The founder of Turkey stayed in Dolmabahce, he was Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. He was the biggest leader for the Turkish people. Everybody liked him. Also we saw the room where Ataturk died. In this room the clock stopped at 9.05 and Ataturk died at 9.05 in 1938. It was interesting story.  At night we went to Sultanahmet and we ate special beef. It is called kofte. Also we saw the biggest mosque in Sultanahmet and we listened to prayer. On the next day we went back to England.

Spain, Barcelona and Madrid. Five days of travelling.

We decided to go to Spain because it is one of several countries that has very interesting cities to visit. We went to Madrid and Barcelona for five days.

 First we went to Barcelona, and the first thing I noticed was that is a special city. It is a cosmopolitan city with contemporary art, thanks to the contribution of Gaudi's architecture or Dali's style.

 In Barcelona there are many places to visit, for example the Sagrada Familia cathedral, the Guell park and beaches such as Barceloneta. We went to the Sagrada Familia and this cathedral is amazing, it's so high and its architecture is interesting to know.

Also we liked Barcelona because it is a city with accessible prices for accommodation. We stayed in a luxurious hotel, we were comfortable in its rooms because its is tidy, clean and cosy.

After Barcelona, we travelled by bus to the capital of Spain, Madrid. This city is incredible because there are a lot of cultures and museums here. In Madrid we visited the Museo del Prado and Reina Sofia, its museums are the most important to visit. Also we were in the Palacio Real and the city square.

We were walking on the streets of the city to know its architecture and entertainment. This city is unique.

We arrived on Bozcaada at last weekend. My brother and me went to Bozcaada for holiday. Bozcaada is in the Eagean sea. its an island. if you went a romantic holiday,you should go to Bozcaada, Bozcaada will be cheaper for you and it is the same as the others.

This Island is small and population to low. There is on only one live zone.You should sea two or three hotels. If you want rent a home for your family there are a lot of homes on the Island.

We arrived in Taganga on Friday morning.
It's a small island  near to Santa Marta in Colombia. It's a place where you can find people from different nationalises ...It's a very touristy beach. The first thing I looked was the clear and blue sea.
My family rented  a house near to the beach. It was so big and very beautiful, we could see the sea from house's balcony, we felt the breeze of the sea. That was very relaxing!

Next day we walked to a beach for about 40 minutes. When we arrived we chose the best place to take our rest, we took any chair and we seat down a good awhile. We could see many people...children ran in middle of the beach, teenager playing in the sea and people taking the sun. I felt so happy because everything was very nice.

We were doing a lot of fun activities as go to different restaurants and tasty a lot of food sea, we were doing diving for about 1 hour. It was very exiting! Taganga is a amazing Island to visit...you can go with your family or your friends because this place has many thing which you could spend your time.
