The new television:

Today I heard on the news that soon if you don’t have a digital receptor you could not see television. In my house there are three televisions, one in the living-room, another in the kitchen, and last in my room. We already bought two digital receptors (TDT), for my room and for kitchen. The living-room’s television will not work with TDT because it’s very old and doesn’t have euro connector so we’ll have to buy a new television.
The TDT in my room has DVD player but not the kitchen TDT.
You can buy a lot of types of TDT depends on branch. I heard on TV that a lot of people haven’t bought a TDT yet. I am sure that old people would be damaged with it because it will be hard for them to understand how to use it.
The conclusion is that if you don’t buy a new TV or a digital receptor you could not see the TV.

Trip to the zoo with my brother:

My brother wanted to go to the zoo and my parents decided to prepare a trip to go with him and invited me to with them. We went there by car because Barcelona is not far away. Was a sunny day so was a hot day. We arrived to Barcelona and there was a lot of traffic. When arrived to the zoo it was full of people waiting to go in. My brother was happy to be there. When we went in we saw the elephants and giraffes.
My parents wanted to go to see the lions and zebras but my brother was scared of them.
We went to see the sheeps and we could feed them. It was amazing.
Later, we went to have lunch outside the zoo.
On the evening we went in again and visited another animals like fishes. It was so funny to walk under sharks but my brother was a little bit scared.
At six o’clock we were tired and decided go home. During the way home my brother and I were sleeping in the car.
It was a very funny day.

Problems at the airport:

One year ago I wanted to travel to London. I bought the ticket online. I thought did it well but when I arrived at the airport my problems started. First of all, I went to have a coffee and when I wanted to pay I realized I didn’t have cash. The girl working there let me go to the cash dispenser. After paying I went to check-in my baggage. There I had another trouble. First a man working there asked me for my passport and for my boarding card. I didn’t realized that my passport was expired but I had my DNI.
Then he weighted my baggage and told me that my baggage was three kilos overweight.
I was lucky that I had a empty hand bag and I could put some clothes in and didn’t have to pay extra money. He gave me back my boarding card and told me that I had to board at half past eleven and my departure gate was number 7. It was eleven o’clock and I went to search gate 7 and I found it without problems. When I went in the plane I had a surprise, the pilot was a friend of my mother. He was happy to see me. I asked him If we were on delay and he told me that plane would leave in thirty minutes.
As he told me we left on time to London.
I have to say my arrival was all right, and I had a good time in London.

Dear Peter,
Thank you very much for your letter. I was very happy to hear from you. I am still studying, we finish at the end of June. I hope not fail anything. My family are ok.

Summer is coming and you could come some days.
In front of my house in the river they are doing sky-nautic during the summer and I know that you like it.

How is your family? Do you still have dog? And cat?

Shopping with my mother

Last week, I went with my mother to Girona because I needed to buy some clothes. First of all we went to buy shoes. I tried on but I didn’t like it, my mother bought a shoes. After we went to another shop and I bought a trousers and t-shirt.
I was tired and we went to have a coffee. I don’t like coffee and I drank coke. I thought we were leaving but my mother wanted to go to another shop. There she bought a socks and underwear for me.
I have to go to a weeding and bought a shirt, tie and suit. My mother didn’t like anything and she was sad.
My father called asking where we were and my mother answered that we were leaving Girona. I am sure that he was hungry and he wanted to have dinner.

Last match

Yesterday I went to see the match L’Armentera – Sant Pere Pescador, it was in my village. I was very excited because was the last match and Sant Pere is our rival.
In the first part, we were winning 2-0. The match finished with the result of 2-0.
There were a lot of people from both teams. We had a plastic doll and we dressed it with a trousers and t-shirt the same as Sant Pere`s team. Also one of my friends arrived with his face painted red and black the same as Armentera`s team t-shirt.
At the end of the match, we celebrated the victory with cava over there and later we went to the coffee. There we met the players from l’Armentera team and we saw another match of football. This was Mallorca – Barça and the winner was Mallorca.
After drinking more cava we left the coffee and went home.
