Dear, Winda
How's everything? I'm having a great time. I'm in Malang for a holiday now. I
have been in this town for a week.
Yesterday my aunty, Latifah, took me to Jawa Timur Park in Batu. It was amazing.
The park provided a lot of things to enjoy, such as; a bird park, a flower park, a children
park, and "Gallery Belajar". The last was so interesting. Some scientific exhibitions
could be found here. Visitors could try them. I think you would be curious to do it if you
were there.
The other day we went to "Coban Rondo". It was a fresh and cool waterfall on the
slope of mountain. We should pass a small path along the jungle to come to the place. I
enjoyed it very much.
On the last day we went to "Ngliyep". It was a quiet beach. The most interesting to
do on the beach was playing with the sand. Tito and Mirna, my cousins, built castle with
the sand. I joined them. We were happy when the waves came. They swept the castle we
made.
Well, Winda, that's all from me now. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Please reply this soon. Give my best regard to both you and your family.
Yours,
Vivi

Mangrove Trees
A mangrove is a tropical maritime tree or shrub of the genus Rhizophora.
Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots that enable them to thrive
in brackish water (brackish water is salty, but not as salty as sea water).
There are several species of mangrove tress found all over the world. Some prefer
more salinity, while others like to be very close to a large fresh water source (such as a
river). Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some species have their roots
covered with sea water every day during high tide. Others are more sensitive to salinity,
and grow closer to the shore. Other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the
ecosystem.
Mangrove need to keep their trunk and leaves above the water line. Yet they also
need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves. There are three
types of mangrove roots that help in this process :
1.
1. Support roots which directly pierce the soil.
2. Level-growing roots which twist upward and downwards, with the upward
twists emerging on the water surface.
3.
3. Level-growing roots whose downward twists (sub-roots) appear on the water
surface.
Any part of a root that appears above the water line channels oxygen to the plant below
the water line. Over time as soil begins to build up, these roots produce additional roots
that become embedded in the soil.
