My last stop is the gulf of Aden, it is between Somalia and Yemen, and the capitals are Mogadishu for Somalia and San'a for Yemen. The body of water that borders the gulf of Aden is the indian ocean, it is dry, very hot, with very little rain, the gulf of Aden is a somewhat thin gulf, and it is known for the pirate activity in the area. The biggest difference between this place and my 4th location is that my 4th was humid and subtropical, this place has very little rain and is very hot.

My next stop is the gulf of Genoa. It is at the highest point in the Ligurian sea. The capital is Venice and Switzerland, Slovenia, France, and Austria border it. Bdies of water around it are the Adriatic, Ionian, and Tyrrhenian seas. The climate of italy is humid and subtropical, and Italy looks like a big peninsula. For a long while Italy was conquered by the Romans but then it became a democratic nation and still is today.

My next stop is the gulf of Mexico, and it borders Mexico. It's capital is Mexico city, and countries that border it are the United States and Venezuela. Bodies of water around it are the Atlantic and Pacific ocean, and the climate is warm most all year round. It looks like a part of the ocean, except that it has islands dotting it in places.

The Amber Spyglass
If you are a fantasy lover than you will love this book! The title of this book is The Amber Spyglass. The genre is fantasy and the author is named Phillip Pullman. The theme is love is more powerful than anything. This story is about a girl named Lyra and her friend named Will. Both of them are trying to get Lyra's friend Roger out of the underworld. They end doing so and learning that love is more powerful than anything when Will destroys the most powerful weapon ever.
Will first destroys a knife that can cut throw anything and can open doors to another world, just by thinking of his mom, who he both loved and missed, just for a few split seconds. Then much later in the book Will learns he can't deny the fact that he loves Lyra. Than at the very end Lyra sees Will destroy the knife forever by thinking of Lyra, not his mom, and throwing the pieces into another world.
I cannot connect to this theme because I have never found someone outside my family that I loved.
I think this is a good book because the plot is very interesting, it tells you an important lesson about life. This is an important theme because it tells you about the best qualities of life. They're are some things that you can't experience about life except through love. Overall this is a good book, because it tells you about one of the most important lessons of life and it has an interesting plot. I hope like this book, and if you do try the first book in the series, The Golden Compass! This is an interesting set of books and I hope you like them.

My life today is very different from my medieval life the only thing that is the same is the fact that I interact with my family every day. Our government still has taxes, but how much depends on what we use how often we use it. And the events that happened are most of the time either sports or government related.

Most all the peasants revolted today. It happened in the middle of the town and it happened around noon. The peasants started this when they were fed up with the current rules. During the revolt several of the townspeople were killed. I viewed this at the second floor of my house. I think it was stupid for them to revolt and most townspeople agree with me. As a result some of the people began to work double duty, though most didn't.

I hang out with my brother, and my friends, I buy things from whichever merchant sells things for the cheapest price, as well as my mom, dad, and the baker I work for. I eat mainly the bread we bake most of the time as well as fruit and vegetables. We don't eat meat unless we can afford it, and at that we can't get a large piece of it. We have a fairly large mountain around our town, we have a few hills bordering it, but other than that we have fairly flat ground in our town.

I have a government ruled by a king and queen. I agree with the law that makes sure the first month of harvest goes to the king and queen, but I don't agree with the law that our taxes are 25%of the money we do get. I am a christian, and the peasants revolt against the king and queen every now and then.

My name is Sam Bakersman and I live in Spain. I am 13 years old and I am an apprentice to a baker. My mom's name is Alice, my dad's name is Dan,and my brothers name is Alex. My dad is a blacksmith, and my mom is a parchmenter. My house is like a middle ranked persons house. I find other kids my age and do whatever we decide on doing for fun. I am expected to clean all the food ingredients we are done with, to bake most every thing we are supposed to bake, and to head to the market for ingredients when need be.
