What special places do we go to?

In the TLP wiki, kids from other schools such as Daniel B and Anna want to know what special places we go to have fun with our friends. Well in our place there are not to much places we can go, but although we have many fun in the places that we can go. On Fridays and Sundays that is when we are doing to hang out with our friends; we can go to places like: “El Campito” that is a place where you have a baseball court and a mini soccer court where kids go to play. But at nigh we go to eat pizza in a place near there called "the carriola". The pizzas in there are very good and its also in a very exclusive place because its near a restaurant called "Del Otoyal" where you can eat different kind of foods. Near there its also a club that is "Club Cartagena" where there are tennis courts and restaurant, it also has places for parties and a big pool. This is some places we can hang out with our friends in the nights.

Other places that we can also go are called the "San Martin" that’s a street. In that street you see many tourist hotels and most of the stores. The places we go in there are Mc Donald, Creeps and Waffles and "El Corral". These are all very good food restaurants, 2 of them are fast food and Creeps and waffles is a little more elegant. The most elegant restaurants are located in "The Centro" that is located in the middle of our city.

I really think that in here in our place we have not to many places to go to. Although it is a very beautiful city with very beautiful people for the kids like us, in the nigh we have plans but not enough of them. On the days we can go to our beaches and the pools in the new building that they are building all over the city.

There are also some islands called The Rosario Islands were people can go to swim and have fun. They can also go to the aquarium and have fun watching all the animals and swimming looking nearly to the beautiful corals. For the tourist the city is very fun because they meet new people and discover and other culture. This city has very special hotels like the Hilton hotel or The Americas; these are hotels where you can have all the information of Cartagena and a very hospitality place where you can pass your vacations. Maybe you feel that out place is very different from yours but you need to know that there are totally different cultures. Your place is all the way across is you are in Malaysia, or if you are in Canada, or Us we are more near. I hope that when you come to Cartagena we can see each other because it’s a very beautiful place when is you are a tourist you can have many new things to discover.

introduction

Hi my name is Margarita and I am 12 years old but I am going to turn 13 very soon on May 28. Well I really like to better be called Margui because my name is very long! I live in Cartagena, Colombia and I study in the Jorge Washington School, but better called Cojowa that the Co stands for “colejio” that means school in spanish, the Jo that stands for Jorge and Wa that stands for Washington. For English class this time Mr.Hide our teacher gave us a really interesting project that has to do many things about the future. Something that really wories me about the future is the global warming but there are also some other things like smoking and drugs.

This thing of global warming is woring me alot because it really is telling us that in many years the world is going to sink. This is happening all because of us, when we use all thoses sprays and all that polution we create and bad gases we produce are destroying the atmosphere and the ozone layer. This is making the sun hit alot more to the planet Earth and although the layers are bigger and stronger in the poles, the sun´s rays are still hitting earth very quikley.

This is making the poles melt very fast and thats why all the climates are changing and the amount of whater is increasing. I once saw a movie called an inconvinient truth, its were a man thats called Az Gore talks al about that and whats going to be happening in the future if we keep doing what we are doing know. I don´t know if in other continents or country they are doing somethings to prevent this damage. But in the United States they are canceling all the sellings os the sprays in all the stores and people do make it work. But in other countries or cities, the people are not making the rules work, they are destroing the atmosphere and are looking at was happening now but they are not thinking of what may happend in the future to our world if we keep doing what we are doing. Hope you think not only about now but of what can possibly happen in the fututre.

An other thing that is really happening and I am waching many people doing it is smoking. Everytime I pass arund in my city walking I see girls or boys smoking on almost every corner. This is really bad for the world. One beacuse it is one reasong in wich the global warming is increasing. Two is beacuse if every kid from now starts smoking, when they are 40 years old they can die. This is really bad also because many little kids are doing it only because they see the big kids do it and I really thik is not fair.


Maybe people think that alcohol is fine, but not for little kids. Thats an other things thats very bad for us. If we keep being like this the world is going to be full of alcoho and every single kid of 10 years old will whant to drink alcohol. This is something similar to smoking, when little kids go to parties and they see the big ones drinking alcohol they will whant to do it to just so they can be like the big ones. I really think that the people that read this think about what they are doing and what they are going to do in the future, for them and for the world. Thank you.
