The Romans

Today we went to see the roman empire's ruins in Tarragona.
We went to the amphitheatre were the gladiators fought to entertain people.
They also used it to kill people that were sentenced to death.
In rare occasions Christians were killed there because they didn't  recognise the roman Gods.
This is why in the VI century a church was built in the middle
of the arena.
This is a picture of me before entering the arena.

Skatepark

30 May: Today I went to a skate park that we saw earlier. At the beginning I found it pretty boring so I went to the park were Zane was playing. I had a little play with him and then mum came over and took a few photos.

Salou

29 May: Today we woke up in Barcelona and went to Salou.
Salou is located 100 km south of Barcelona on the Mediterranean Sea .
we are staying at my Grandma's place.
This is me on the verandah as you can see there are no waves here. My mum says that when there is a storm the beach underneath sometimes has some little waves but very rarely.

My holidays have started

We have been packing all day. When we finished packing Dad took us to the airport to catch a plane to Dubai. It took from Brisbane to Dubai 14 hours and 20 minutes. [this is a photo of us before landing in Dubai]

the flight 

The flight to Dubai was much better because it only took 7 hours. The best part was that we had a row of 4 seats so we could get a good sleep, Zane could get a chair, no one disturbed us.
it is three o'clock in the morning in Barcelona  now but we are having breakfast.
I know some Spanish words:
one - uno
two - dos
three - tres
four - cuatro
five - cinco
That's all for today.
