  On Friday, the 12 th of October, 2012 we celebrate the National Day of Spain. It commemorates when Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492. He was born in Genoa, a city of Italy, the thirty - first of October, 1451. He wanted to go to India, in the east, like Marco Polo to obtain spices.

On August, 3, 1492 he set sail from Palos de la Frontera, in Huelva, with a hundred men and with three ships called the Niña, the Pinta and the Santa Maria. He stopped in the Canary Islands. On September, 6, 1492 he left the Canary Islands.
He arrived in America the12th of October, 1492, but he thought it was India.

Kati's mother and Thomas' timeline

Kati's mother

“Kati's mother is a wonderful woman! She is very smart and funny. She and Kati think she is funnier than her dad- but he doesn't seem to agree!- She and Kati love to meet new people , make new friends and dance! She loves Chinese food and ice cream, but once in a while. She likes to eat very healthy food, so when Kati goes home she does the same! She doesn't cook with olive oil, just water!

Kati's mum name is not “her mum” but Laura Travis Kushner. She is a little bit shorter than her and she has blue eyes and short brown hair. She was born in Charlotte, North Carolina and she has lived there her whole life. She is retired now, but she was a guidance counsellor for 36 years.

Kati's mum is usally right, but Kati didn't realize it until Kati got older. Maybe one day when we're 23 and living in a foreign country, we will realize that about our mum too.

Kati loves and misses her very much!<3”

Our TV experience

This Monday we went to a TV contest called Are You Ready?
We went to the studios in Mollina (Málaga), to participate in the program at 7:30. We took part vs San Roque school. It is a school from Churriana de la Vega.

We arrived to the studio about 9 o'clock. First they taught us Are you ready dance and we did a rehearsal of all the contest.

Later we had four tests: The first called Web music, the second called Secret word,the third called Magic box and the forth called Sticky eggs. Some questions were easy but other were difficult and we made some mistakes, anyway, we were lucky!

We were not very nervous but some of us had hysterics. We liked the program because of the songs and because we had a lot of fun!

When we won we had to make many takes. We were there about three hours.

At half past twelve we took pictures with Felipe (the program presenter) and he wrote autographs for the kids. We liked him, but we didn't like his English because he didn't pronunce it very well.

Easter

On Monday morning my cousin Pablo came to my house to play with my brother and me. In the afternoon I went to my grandmother's house to make Easter Doughnuts.
On Tuesday morning I was very nervious because in the evening we went to see my new uncle's house. In the evening we went to see that house and... it's bigger than my house!
On Wednesday my parents and I went to see a few processions. In the evening my cousins from Málaga came to my grandmother's house.

Now I'm doing my homework with my cousins. And this evening I will go to the cinema to watch "La invención de Hugo".

Tomorrow we will relax during the morning, and in the evening we will make a barbecue in my new uncle's house.
On Saturday I will go to the beach to eat fish. In the afternoon I will go to my other uncle's house.
On Sunday I will find chocolate eggs with my cousin.

This holidays were, are and will be fantastic!
