Introduction

2 SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Why would I like to visit Australia?This is somewhere I would like to visit because you can see Dolphins in the water as you are sailing. You can also see animals like Koala Bears and Kangaroos. I think that Australia would be a very exciting place to visit or live in. I would like to do scuba-diving in the waters and swim with the Dolphins if they would let me.

Why do I want to visit Dubai?I would like to visit Dubai because it is like a big city built on top of a big desert island. It sounds a little scary but it is true and so I would like to see it with my own eyes. It is the only place in the world that has famous hotels floating on the water like the Burj Al Arab. I would like to know how a huge hotel can float on the water! It would be fun to be in the desert and ride on the camels that hardly drink any water. WOW!

DUBAI, EGYPT4

MADAGASCAR

Why do I want to visit Madagascar?After seeing the movie “Madagascar” I became very interested in going to this place. It would be exciting to be in the jungle like Mogli in the Jungle Book! I would also like to visit the animals from the Madagascar movie in the Jungle. But, because the animals are real they may be wild and dangerous. ROAAAAARRRRR!!!!!!

CANADA

Why do I want to visit Canada?Even though I would like to sail around the world and visit many different countries, I always really want to visit Canada as many times as I can because my grandparents live there. I am also a Canadian so I really love the country. There are many great places in Canada and my most favourite city is Toronto Ontario. Our family visits every year but it would be fun to visit on my sailing trip.
