My trip to Italy - VIDEO

MY TRIP TO ITALY

Our trip to Italy started 2 weeks ago. We went to the Barcelona Airport and we went to Milan. When we landed, we took a bus and we went to Sirmione and the Lago Di Garda. In the afternoon we went to the hotel and we could visit Verona and some historic places like: Arena, Romeo’s and Julieta’s house… The next day we went to Venecia and we walked a lot! We could visit all places and we ate a lot of pizza and pasta. The bridges were the best things there. Then, we went to Florencia, and we visited the entire city like Santa Maria del Fiore, we also walked a lot but we could spend a grateful time together. The last day we went to Pisa and we took the typical photo holding the Pisa tower. And finally we returned to Spain.

WRITE ABOUT PLANS FOR A VISIT

Hi Maria,

I'm just writing to check that everything's OK for your visit.

I think you'll like Banyoles. On saturday morning we're going to visit the town, because my parents weally want to show you the city. In the afteroon we'll be free, so we will probably meet some of my friends, and we could walk around the lake. It's up to you. I expect we'll end up in one bar near my house.

On Sunday we could get a bus and go to Girona. There we can have lunch and then go shopping or something like that. Also we could go to the cinema if you want.

We're going to meet you at the airport tomorrow, so can you remind me what time does your plane gets in?

Looking forward to seeing you.

Lidia

WRITING 9

Something happened a couple of weeks ago which was a real test of my honest. I was with my friends and we were walking to the supermarket. When I was walking I found an envelope with 10.000€ and one of my friends appeared.
''What is it?'' he asked.
'' I'm not sure, what is it?'' he said.
We went to the police, and the policeman listened to me and he forced me to give him the envelope.
In the end, nothing happened about the money. The policeman was very good about it. I felt that I'd done right thing.

Germanwings plane crash: Co-pilot 'wanted to destroy plane'

 The co-pilot of the Germanwings flight that crashed in the French Alps, named as Andreas Lubitz, appeared to want to "destroy the plane", officials said.

Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin, citing information from the "black box" voice recorder, said the co-pilot was alone in the cockpit.

He intentionally started a descent while the pilot was locked out.

Mr Robin said there was "absolute silence in the cockpit" as the pilot fought to re-enter it.

He said air traffic controllers made repeated attempts to contact the aircraft, but to no avail. Passengers could be heard screaming just before the crash, he added.

Details are also emerging of the co-pilot's past - although his apparent motives for causing the crash remain a mystery.

Mr Lubitz, 28, had undergone intensive training and "was 100% fit to fly without any caveats", according to Carsten Spohr, the head of Lufthansa, the German carrier that owns Germanwings.

Mr Spohr said Mr Lubitz's training had been interrupted briefly six years ago but was resumed after "the suitability of the candidate was re-established".

The Airbus 320 from Barcelona to Duesseldorf hit a mountain, killing all 144 passengers and six crew, after an eight-minute descent.

"We hear the pilot ask the co-pilot to take control of the plane and we hear at the same time the sound of a seat moving backwards and the sound of a door closing," Mr Robin told reporters.

He said the pilot, named in the German media as Patrick S, had probably gone to the toilet.

Shailene Woodley

With the Dicergent films, Shailene became famous very quickly. To protect her privacy, she now avoids technology, and doesn't have a mobile phone. Shailene communicates directly with people, and this way, no one can steal her personal information. ''The more you get away from all the technological buzz, the more freedom you have'' she says.

MILEY CYRUS
