The next place I am going to visit is Brazil. It is in South America. The capital of Brazil is Brasilia. Colombia, Paraguay, Peru, Bolivia, Uruguay and Venezuela borders Brazil. In the winter time Brazil is up to 22 degrees F. In the Summer it gets really hot. Brazil in the wild can look very tropical and alive and in the public around everyone is all tared roads and kind of busy like. The Native American peoples who were the original inhabitants of what is now Brazil included the Arawak and Carib groups in the north, the Tupi-Guarani of the east coast and the Amazon River valley, the Ge of eastern and southern Brazil, and the Pano in the west. For the most part these groups were essentially semi-nomadic peoples, who subsisted by hunting and gathering and simple agriculture. It took me the cross the Mediterranean Sea, the northern part of Africa and to cross the whole mid part of the Atlantic Ocean. To get to my 5th location I had to use a boat. I had one trouble going on my way to Brazil, I almost got on the wrong boat. There wasn't much of a difference in spain and brazil. But it seems like Brazil seems more fun. I had more fun in Brazil because they had more to do there.

the third place I am going to visit is Ontario, Canada. There is a island there called Manitoulin, I am going to visit there. The united states borders Canada and the North Atlantic ocean and Northern Pacific ocean borders Canada. People think that year around Canada is really cold. Around winter time the temperatures are below freezing in most parts of the country. In the summer the highest it would get would be 30 degrees Celsius. Canada looks like very outdoors and fresh. The nature looks alive. To get from Spain to Canada you have to cross the North Atlantic Ocean. I took a carnival cruise from Spain to Canada. I felt good about traveling to Canada most of the time, but every once in a while i felt like i was going to puke from the boat rocking back and forth.

The third place I am going to be visiting is Ibiza, Spain! It's an island in Spain The capital of Spain is Madrid. Countries that border Spain are France and Portugal. The Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Spain has hot dry summer and mild rainy winters. Spain looks really rich with money and big buildings. Around 1100 BC, Phoenicians from present-day Lebanon set up trading colonies along the Spanish coast. Greeks also traded along the north-eastern coast. From Australia to Spain you have to cross the Indian Ocean. The difference between Australia and Spain is Spain is more rich looking and Australia is more outdoors. The one trouble I had was that when we were crossing the ocean my luggage almost fell off the boat. But luckley there was a smaller boat there to catch it. I rode in a giant boat, and there was a small boat that caught it and gave it back.

My second location.
The second place i am visiting is Australia. It is it's own country. The capital of Australia is Canberra. The only locations that border Australia is the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean. The northern part of the country has a tropical climate, and the southeast and southwestern parts of Australia have temperate climate and moderately fertile soil. In the northern part of Australia it looks like a tropical rain forest and 40% of Australia is covered by sand dunes. The earliest human discovered in Australia was "Mungo Man" he is been predicted to be 40,000 years old. In the history throughout the years they had 250 different languages, and today about 200 of them are now extinct. Dutch, Portuguese, and Spanish ships sighted Australia in the 17th century. The Dutch landed at the Gulf of Carpentaria in 1606. Australia became known for its liberal legislation: free compulsory education, protected trade unionism with industrial conciliation and arbitration, and women's suffrage. From my first location you have to cross the whole Indian Ocean to get to Australia, and thats what I did.

It's very tropical in Madagascar, like humid. It looks very alive, there is no dead plants. some history of Madagascar it the island is first known to Europeans after being sighted in 1500 by a Portuguese ship on the new route to India, nobody really paid much attention to Madagascar until a century later. Britain and France attempt to establish settlements of Madagascar.
