Tsunami

Hi,Chris

How are you? I got your previous e-mail about the earthquake in Crete. And yes something terrible happened to me too.

I went to Hawaii to see my aunt and my cousins! The terrible part is that an earthquake happened in the middle of the ocean. It caused a big tsunami coming toward Hawaii, but the tsunami never came. Still, big waves destroyed many houses and caused flooding.

My family and I left before all that happened and that's why I don't know what other disasters it has caused. When I find out I'm going to write you back, ok?

Your best friend,
Chris

Earthquake

Hello Dawn,

How are you? I'm writing to you because something terrible happened. Actually it was an earthquake.

Here in Kalamata it didn't cause any damage. The ground was shaking like crazy but nothing happened here. In Crete, where the earthquake happened it did terrible damage. Flats were braking and falling on the ground which had big holes and it was cracked. They didn't drive with their cars to leave because they were worried. The road was broken. They didn't want to end up in a hole in the middle of the road. My gradma is in Crete. Thank God she's OK

Did anything terrible happen to you too? Write back as fast as you can.
Chris

MY NEW PHONE

Hi Sofie,

I'm writing to tell you that my mom got me a new mobile phone for my birthday. It's the iPhone 5 Mini.

Firstly, it's color is white and it's shape is square. It's a bit small but it's OK because it fits in my pocket. After all its name is "mini".

Secondly, you can go on the internet and play games, listen to music and the best part is that it's got this amaazing app with which you can see which are the best stores in your town.

In addition, my phone can take pictures and then edit them like if it's to bright you can make it darker or the opposite.

Write soon with your news! Chris

CASTLE OF KALAMATA

This is a photo of the castle of Kalamata which is a city in Southern Greece. It is located on a hill that overlooks the city. It was build in 1500 BC and it was used as a kingdom for Prince Faris.

It is a wonderful place to visit because it has a spectacular view of the city of Kalamata and also has a rich history to research and explore.

MY HOME TOWN

My town is called Kalamata and it's in South Greece.

In Kalamata you can go to the beautiful beach or go to the central square. You can visit the great restaurants and cafe bars in Kalamata too. We also have an amazing castle that's worthy to visit.

In summer there are many activities that you can do. You can rent a jet ski or a bicycle boat to ride along Kalamatas beaches. You also can rent a waterslide boat. This boat has a slide on the back of it and you can slide right into the deep ocean! It's lots of fun!

My town is beautiful with plenty of things to do and see. Come visit and see for yourself

THE REAL GAME

That game is about the real life of some animals but is extraordinary.That game is called dragon city.In that game there are mythic monsters which are bought by gems or gold . First I have some gold with which I buy dragons.The dragon is in an egg and 5 hours later it becomes a young dragon. Later I feed it and it grows bigger and more powerful.Some time the gold and the gems become less and less and there are no more left. So I must fight with different dragons and after I win 8 times, I get more gems. I can breed dragons  so that I have a new kind of dragon.


That game is free and I'm telling you to download it.

There are glass floors in the museum and you can see a lot of things underground. On the fifth floor there is glass all around and you get scared. In the first  floor there is a small cinema where you can get informed about the history of the Parthenon.
It's really great. I think we must all visit it.
