3. Dear Emma G,
Greetings from Morocco! Morocco is was
such beautiful place with many wonderful
stop and sites to visit. My first stop is at
Todra Gorge for a climbing adventure. There
are about 400 different climbing routes to
explore there. Next I went to Meknes, a city
in northern Morocco. While in Meknes I
learned that Meknes is the third imperial city
and sometimes it is the most overlooked.
The last place I visited was Volubilis, a
Roman city in Morocco. Volubilis is Roman
ruins but it is also decorated with beautiful
mosaics and colorful tiles. It was a
breathtaking stop. Overall I had such a great
time in Morocco.

5. Dear Laurel,
Greetings from London! London has been an
amazing stop so far. My days have been
slammed pack with things to do. My first
stop was at the London Eye for a ride around
the giant Ferris wheel. The London Eye is 443
feet tall and the wheel has a diameter of 394
feet. It is the largest Ferris wheel in Europe
an the most popular tourist attraction in the
United Kingdom. My second was at the
Tower of London, a historic castle on the
north bank of the River Thames. While
exploring the tower I learned that it’s
actually name is not the Tower of London,
but it’s full official name is His Majesty’s
Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of
London. My last stop in London was Big Ben,
a chiming clock. The tower was finished in
1858 and is the third-tallest free-standing
tower. I had a great time in London!

7. Dear Emma C,
Greetings from Greece! I loved it there so
much! My first stop was the Delphi Theatre.
The ancient theatre was built in the 4th
century BC and can seat 5,000 spectators. My
second stop was Meteora, one of the largest
and most important complexes of Eastern
Orthodox monasteries in Greece . While
visiting the site I learned that Meteora
means suspended in the air or in the heavens
above in Greek. My final stop in Greece was
Santorini, an island in the southern Aegean
Sea. Here I went shopping and to the beach. I
had a wonderful time in Greece and wish I
had more time to explore.

9. Dear Emma Z,
Greetings from France! I love France so
much! It’s one of my most favorite stops. The
first place I visited in France is the Palace of
Versailles, a royal castle. When I toured the
castle I found out that the castle 2,300
rooms, 2,153 windows, and 67 staircases, it
was really cool. The next place I went was
the Arc de Triomphe, one of the most famous
monuments in Paris. The arch was build in
1806 right after the victory at Austerlitz by
Emperor Napoleon. It was really pretty at
night. The last and best place I visited was
the Eiffel Tower. From the ground to the first
floor is over 300 steps so I walked a lot of
steps when I visited it, however I stopped for
a bite to eat because there are restaurants
on the first and second floor. Overall I had a
great time in France!
