Dear jean,
I would like to share my travelling experience. Last holiday, I went to India. If you likewalking, Shimla is a great destination. It's located in Himachal. I went there with my family.
The most spectacular and beautiful landscape can be found there. Himachal is a travelers' paradise - lofty snow peaks, deep gorges, lush green valleys, fast flowing rivers, enchanting mountain lakes, flower-bedded meadows, and beautiful temples. Himachal is especially famous for snow. It is also a land of gods, goddesses, and saints.
We reached the hotel in the morning. We took some rest for a while and then headedfor our destination. We visited many places. I can't tell you the detail one by one but Iattached many photos.

Rachel

My favorite toy is a kite. Layang-layang or a kite is a very popular pastime toy in Indonesia. Many people like to play it. There are two distinct types of kites. The first are those which have tails attached to them to balance the kite; and those that will be used for one-on-one dogfights among kite flyers.
Kites for dogfights are popular among boys. They do not have tails attached to them. They are made from light bamboo and waxed paper. The string is the most important part in kites for dogfighting. It must be sharp so it can cut other strings easily. To make such kind of string is not easy. It must be coated with crushed glass. The string is dipped in a solution of crushed glass, which has been boiled with glue, chemicals and dye. The mixture acts as an adherent so the tiny particles of glass will cling to the string. The string is strung out on a small rack to let it dry. This string is used for dogfights.
