Writitng: a Brave Rescue

The rescue happened while we were on holiday in a Beach in California last August. It was really incredible but also gave a little scary and I was lucky to get a photo of it.

It was with my family and we were in a boat where we decided to lead the day and we saw a person who went into the wàter and crossed a shark to his right! The rescuers were watching to the Beach and soon went there to help him. Was rare to found a shark so closed to the beach. Sometimes was because there wasn't food in their area.

The person wasn't move and when the animal walked away, they could save the person. The rescuers and the person were very brave because the shark was swimming near them!

SWEET SHOES!

No, you can't eat these shoes! Chris Cambell, an American fashion designer, made them. They are decorated with synthetic cockies, ice-cream sundaes and chocolate cakes. Clients can costumize their shoes, but they are expensive-these shoes cost 250 dollars!

Here we are in my ideal home. It's a big modern flat near the center. It's enormous and It's got everything.

It's got four beddrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room. The living room has got a nice balcony with two chairs and a table.

On an ideal afternoon in my ideal house we're all here. My mum and dad are shopping in the center. My sister is reading in the living room. I'm in the barthroom. I'm listening to music in the yakuzzi!

My favorite room is my bedroom. It's got a big bed and an enourmous TV. I like relaxing in it.
