Flat Streets and Red Roofs I walked along the streets in the boiling sun with no water, sweat dripping from my forehead. My head ringing from the heat as I slowly stumbled along. At least I don’t have to carry an umbrella. Houses are on my left and right with their red, orange and pink tiled roofs and their brick built walls with different colours of paint. I wish there would be a Beijing burst of water. Next time I will definitely take the car.
Facts about Beijing Beijing has approximately 12 million people living in their country. People who can't afford to live in big, tall houses, live in small huts and in Beijing you don't get roads you get small alley ways and little parts of a road or lanes. In Beijing you can get nice houses but you rarely find them around and you will find that either elderly people live in them or a family living in them, but the house has been passed down to them.

The long adventure to the Statue of Liberty After I devoured my food, I started to journey to the Statue of Liberty. In 2 days’ time, I arrived and cheered although I was famished and parched. So in a matter of minutes, I got my climbing gear and started to climb confidently, without any hesitation. Just one more step‌Finally! I made it. My high-tech camera was inside my pocket. In 5 minutes you would have not known how many photos I took! Next time, the stairs will do.

As I leave America, I look down at the ocean in a horse shoe I see the “maid of the mist”. I have to rest half way through. I feel sick. I don’t have a harness, and I can’t take the height of 56 meters with the spray in my face. At least I’m not in a wooden barrel. I only have less than a quarter to go. I have crossed the border to Canada I’ve done it hooray !
Around the world in 80 words Now looking up all I see is snow, trees also rocks clouds blocking up the sight of the top. To me it reminds me of a iced bun [but it has no cherry] the snow is turning into a blizzard it is at least -7 right now all I see is a endless wall of white like I am in the icing but of course that’s mountain Fuji. That’s my journey up mountain Fuji by Jake Atkinson
Facts about Mount Fuji It is 12,388 feet. It is the 35th most prominent mountain. Its crater is 820 feet deep and has a surface diameter of 1,600 feet. The mountain is referred by some as the fire goddess. The best time to climb the mountain is in July and August because most of the snow has melted. This mountain is acutely a volcano (but it never erupts any more). Its full name is fujiramasan.
Snow in a meadow My feet are freezing as I walk across the snowy meadow. I hear the crunching of the ice beneath my feet. But I love the feeling of being wrapped up warm in hat, scarf and gloves. It’s like walking in a winter wonderland. Some of the snow has melted but some has been hiding in the shadows of the trees. It’ still there but it won’t be for long. I can’t wait to get home to eat my Belgian chocolate.
I am still climbing. Suddenly the ground starts to rumble. Steam from the top turns to boiling hot lava. The question is will I survive? As I ran the lava was chasing me. I have no time to waste I must get into the trees and out of the way. I am out of the way of the volcano Karymsky in Russia in the Kamchatka region I am safe. To find out more about the karymsky volcano search information on karymsky volcano.
The Great Wall of China I rambled and staggered, I didn’t know where this horrendous journey was going to end. I was having trouble catching my breath, so I had to rest for a minute. I have been dying for a drink of water, that’s how thirsty I am! I then realised that it had been an endless journey, but I’ve had absolutely enough of the 8000 kilometres of wall. I was exceptionally proud with myself. This had been a splendid challenge! Facts The Great Wall of China is, 851.8 kilometres. They built it for a defence against the northern nomadic tribes. There are a lot of people who added bits to the Great Wall of China. The first man was Qing Shi Huang – china’s first emperor. The Great Wall of china was built between the 3rd century B.C to the 17th century A.D.
Around the world in 80 words. The spectacular Scenery. I cautiously clambered along the rocky and rugged hilltop taking in the wonderful sights. The water was as azure and clear as the sky on a beautiful summer’s day. I carried on never forgetting that beautiful scenery. At the top was a sandy surface which was hot to touch. It was hard climbing the beautiful and rocky Azat reservoir but worth it when I saw the outskirts of the amazing Armenian land. I am definitely going back there again.

The Long Way Up What has 4 faces and 8 hands? I had to find out. As I approach St Stephen’s Tower, my heart thumping as I march in, I wonder what lies behind this sight. 10 more steps to climb so I’m on the 324th step, gasping for breath. It’s a long way up, then finally I reach the last and final step, the 334th. I have mixed emotions; the bell strikes 1:00. Big Ben has a deafening sound.
A tough journey through America wasn’t the end, as my car broke down trying to go the shortcut through Arizona. Finally I was there, however I forgot to bring my camera, anyway I came here to sight see so it didn’t really matter. It was tough journey, but when I saw it I realised all of that was worth it, I just couldn’t believe it was 29km! Wide it was fascinating. I would defiantly come back if I could.
1. It is 277 miles long and 18 miles wide. 2. It’s in Arizona a state in America. 3. Its 5 to 10 thousand feet deep
Explosions Trees like fireworks on bonfire night red, yellow and green. I am astonished at the site of a trillion trees. The colours are so amazing. The wind is rushing through the treetops making the atmosphere feel alive. I look left and right, but there`s no sign of an opening. The sky is blue and the sun is shining although I`m traipsing through a deep, dark, endless forest. I can`t believe my eyes. I`m in Canada. It’s amazing!
This is where Canada is on the map.

Biggest bridge As I stride along the biggest bridge going up and down in the world that stretches from Qinhuangdao all the way to jiayaguan. I can’t believe that I am one of the 4 million people the cross it in a year. As I look towards the end and then I follow it back it looks longer every time, and then I thought how long would it take to build and how many stones it would use up as well.
Great Wall of China
Trudging wearily along the dusty road heaving similarly coloured stone bricks. It was painful work dragging a load as heavy as a rhino over your shoulder. I would have preferred a short welcoming rest although the bearers of the menacing whips didn’t agree with me. The four enormous statues of Ramesses II towered above all the defenceless slaves labouring for the Pharaoh. I foresaw the disaster that would soon happen. I watched on as the great temple shuddered and fell.

I’m standing over the bridge, beside me are two huge buildings like castles. Below me I can see a road. But, it’s starting to lift up. Suddenly there is a boat sliding underneath it very quickly. I’m still looking down and I can see the muddy, murky and disgusting River Thames. The barriers close after the boat has whizzed past. I’m starting to recognise the area now. I’m going to climb down the bridge now hoping that it’s safe.
Tunisa kuna settlement Robeson islands As I landed on the water in a small plane, I gazed upon the group of islands and blue crystal sea and yachts flowing through the water. I could feel the hot scorching sun burning me. I could see the grey roof tops and the bamboo doors when I smiled to the villagers. I could feel the razor teeth of the mosquitoes biting me. I was devastated that the villagers had to live this life. By Laurie

As I come from Africa I went to London where there is a very long bridge. It is 139 feet long and 60 feet tall. The part in the middle where it lifts up Robbie Madison did a backflip over it. So that is why I like Robbie Madison and the bridge. It is so cool. I really like it I do not know about you? Wow And that place is the Tower Bridge. By Liam. http://www.yannarthusbertrand2.org/
Volcano of death It is as old as the pyramids. As grand as a Russian King. It looks like it is smoking a cigar. At the moment it is sleeping but if it is woken up it gets so so so so angry it erupts, and spits out lava. It turns a good day in to a disaster. On a good day it can blow its smoke to Alaska.

All around the world in eighty words writing. As I landed, I gazed upon a frightening view. I thought I was dreaming as the Statue of Liberty stood before me, glaring down at the miniature ant that was cautiously observing it. I have only heard about this colossal statue.

Around The World In 80 Words By Maddy Wheeler, Year 6A. I’ve never felt so tired. The sky is pinkish-red as the boiling French sun begins to set. I’m drawing closer to the centre but feeling faint, clutching the surrounding sunflowers for support. Four hectares of searching and dead ends is killing me. I have no strength left, only determination. The cool breeze encouragingly whips my hair, so I pull myself up and take a few steps forward. Turning the final corner, I realise I’ve completed the largest plant maze.

I’m striding up the hill, exhausted and tired also feeling a bit sick because I have not had a crumb of food all day, I’ve been climbing for over 2 hours, and then in that point in time finally reached the top and managed to capture the most beautiful view that I have ever seen I my life. if I ever do this again for some reason I will definitely do this climb some other way, if I do.
As I approached in my boat I saw a lovely view of all the different colours, there were dark blue, light blue and light green, it was amazing. Like the eye on a peacock’s feather. As I ran across the shallow water towards the sand I felt the hot sand between my toes, it felt nice. I liked swimming in the lagoon, it was warm, not hot and not cold. The Maldives were worth the journey.
My beautiful and peaceful island. I was sailing for ages however I couldn’t find the isolated island. After I cruised a little longer I finally found my destination. It was near the hometown of Santa Claus! The island was a dream come true. It had a lush forest and was in the middle of a beautiful sea. The log cabin was delightful with beautiful white rocks surrounding the island. I decided to call it my kingdom and home. It was my most wanted “vision”, peace.

The Biggest Walk Of My Life by Safie Ludlam. I was almost there, I was so happy I wanted to cry, but I was so dehydrated I couldn’t. I couldn’t even form my words. I was at the top of the pyramid, I fell back, I had to try and pull myself back up. I started to bleed. I felt the blood drip from my forehead into my eye. I was at Top of the pyramid. I screamed in excitement. I jumped up and down. The view was breath-taking.
Fun fact The top of the pyramid is flat Not pointy but it’s still not easy to climb. Pyramids were present when tutancarmon reigned. Pyramids are well known for having mummy’s in them.
The Amazon Rainforest. My foot stuck in stinking mud (well I hope it’s mud) as I lumbered through the rainforest. Above parrots gobbled clay (to get rid of toxin’s they get from berries). In front of me, a tapir slowly plodded past. Suddenly a chewed berry fell on my head. I looked up, dodging another falling fruit, and saw five brown monkeys scoffing their faces with fruits. Although I had another great trip, next time I’ll go to the zoo to see animals. By Sam Cork.
I walked along and there It was quite big building in the distance. but when I got all the way I saw it was a massive building. It was white and had a flag on top of it and gates with lions on it.They had spikey bits on the top of the fences.There were lots of windows and lamps next to the gates and it had men standing next to the entrance.
Snow Mountains Band-e Amir I glanced around the snow, the mountains caught my eye. I climbed trying to reach the top. I slipped about 10 times already and had a serious cut. My legs hurt and felt numb, my face was like ice. I was moving slower than usual and my heart was beating fast. The water looked nice but I knew it had life changing powers and then I felt scared. I was at the top, “Phew!� The view in Afghanistan was terrific.
