First peak

This Chinese toy reminded me of mardi gras. All of the fun colors in the toy represent peoples costumes plus most people wear masks with feathers on it to hide who they are on this day. Mardi gras is french for Fat Tuesday. This day falls on Tuesday, which is the day before Ash Wednesday. Some people prefer to say that Fat Tuesday is to eat fatty, foods or to confess/give up things before Ash Wednesday. Many people dress up with fun scarves, masks, shoes, etc.

The most popular places that throw big celebrations is New Orleans, Venice, and Spain. In Medieval times, carnevlevarium means to take away or to eliminate meat. A lot of historians think that the first actual American Mardi Gras was created n March 3 1699. This had happened when the French explorers Iberville and Bienville landed in Louisiana, What is home of the lighting city, New Orleans. 1827, a group of students decided to celebrate  Mardi Gras dancing on streets of New Orleans dressed in coustumes for fun.People started to wear crzy costumes on this event.

 My first glance at this pig reminded me of bacon.bacon is a cured meat that is from pigs.It is cured buy using quantities of salt. In the United States bacon is usually only made from pork belly, which is the pigs belly. There is also other kinds of bacon like turkey bacon and Canadian bacon.You can eat bacon in any kind of food, such as BLT, Omelet, Rumaki, Tenderloin, Potatoes, Cob salad.

There are also many different cuts of bacon such as Middle bacon, Back bacon, Cottage bacon, Jowl bacon, and Slab bacon.In the United Kingdom & Ireland, they either grill or fry their bacon and in Japan their bacon is usually smocked. Australia & New Zealand usually use middle bacon; however, in the United States we use all different types of bacon. Bacon is a processed meat and half of its calories come from saturated fat which increases your bad cholesterol.

 

       

The sight of this seashell reminded me of different oceans. There are 4 different oceans on Earth, Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian ocean. All ocean's are salt water based. In the United States, Hawaii is surrounded by an ocean called the Pacific ocean. The ocean is a home for many sea animals, like sharks, jellyfish, sea turtles, sea horses, stingray, etc. Sea creatures arent the only ones that like the ocean. People who live anywhere near an ocean like to cool off on a hot summer day by taking a dip in the ocean. Some people also like to fish in the ocean too.

The largest ocean is the Pacific ocean, North America, Australia, South America, and Asia border this ocean. Asia, Africa, and Australia border the Indian ocean. Atlantic is bordered by North America, Europe, South America, and Africa.Arctic ocean is surrounded by North America. The Southern ocean i surrounded by South America and Antarctica.Oceans are 3/4 of Earth and we need to take care of them. Many kids and adults make programs to go clean up our beaches or people sometimes just do it for fun too.After all mostly everything ends up in our oceans.

Fall DWA

The cold chills of a fall breeze tingling down my spine and the strong sent of fear coming off of my partner. The stench intensified as we got closer to the power source. Me and Lucas, my partner who is currently drenched in fear, having been preparing for this moment in spy training our whole lives. We have yet to discover what this powerful source is capable of doing.

Lucas and I decided to search for clues. When we were walking we stumbled upon some ripped wires and some sparks. We had thought in our heads that those were left over from the power source. Instead, It turns out that those broken wires and sparks were just from a normal citizens light post.

              The next search was a complete success. We found one clue after another. They each had something in common. They all involved something with pets. From one saying “The greatest pet is the on that you pick out together with your family” to the last clue saying “All animals meet on one street, greens street.”

            Nights after nights trying to put all clues together so they would make sense just got exhausting. Lucas and I decided to bring in help. The next day we called up our friends who is also a spy like us to crack these clues. In an hour we heard the door bell ring. We were greeted by a polite hello by Sam. After greeting one another we got right down to business. Minutes by minutes kept passing by but we had no luck. Approximately five hours after we started, a brilliant idea popped into Lucas head. The last clue had said “All animals meet on one street, green street.”  Lucas knew that in Boston Massachusetts they had a pet shop on Green St. We decided to take this chance and go find this power source.

            It had only took us five minutes for us to find gremlin’s pet shop. Our detector was going off crazy but there was no sight of the power source. We decided to go inside to take a better look at things. Lucas kept on sneezing while we were by the cats and distracted him from his work. Finally he snapped out of it. I went over by the dogs to see if the detector went off over there. It did but we don’t know where it is. The strongest is down under me. How is that possible? There must  be some way to get down there. Lucas and I searched for a secret door way, I had no luck finding one. five minutes Lucas stumbled upon dog food and picked it up. When he had picked it up it opened a secret door. We went in about a mile and started hearing a beeping noise followed by sirens. Lucas gave me  this nervous look when he heard the noises. I told him to keep walking with his eyes peeled for anything. We heard a noise again but this was no siren or beeping it sounded like big booms. We dashed out as quick as we could but we didn’t make it back. Rocks after rocks were pilled upon us, struggling to get out. Lucas got out first and helped me up. We were both severely injured by the heavy rocks. Me and Lucas had just realized that the power source had turned on an alarm and hit a self destruct button to cause all of the rocks in the cave to fall. Then and there we realized that this was truly mission impossible and we had failed.
