Burj Khalifa (Unit 4)

Burj Khalifa also known as Burj Dubai is a skyscraper that is located in Downtown Burj Khalifa of the city of Dubai in Arabian Emirates, and is the most higher building ever built by man with 828 metres height.
The construction started on 21st of September in 2004, and its official inauguration took place on the 4th of January in 2010.

In other hand, the architect of this project was Adrian Smith who worked with the company Skidmore, Owings and Merrill (SOM) since 2006. The construction of the Burj Khalifa counted with an estimate budget of 4.000 million dollars, that at the end it increased into 20.000 million dollars.
Moreover, one part of the total cost of this building was financed by Emir Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum's family.

This excellent building is not only a big skyscraper, it is almost an hotel where big designers have seen a good way of investing its business. Anyway, one of this is Armani who have decorated this marvellous hotel into a one luxurious way to spend your holidays.

Even I've been searching on the Internet for information for the price of this hotel, it has been impossible.
Anyway, none of us can enjoy this extravagant way of life.

To conclude, I want to mention that this wonderful skyscrape has been used for the last film of Tom Cruise; well known as "Impossible Mission 4" where they shooted dangeraous scenes.

Describe your house/flat

My flat is located on the north of my village, Calpe. It's next to the "Hermitage".
That's important to know because in October are typical the torrential rains and lots of houses get flooded. So, because of the location my flat has no problems with this meteorological problem.

First of all, I live in an old building so that I don't have a lift. That's not a problem because I live on the first floor.
At the main entrance, you've got a small hall where you can also see a small book-shelf with a big variety of books and encyclopedias. At the end of the hall I have a big mirror with a small table (the table and the mirror are just one piece, so they are together) where my family and I put on our keys, and when I leave home, I always stop a couple of minutes to watch how I am dressed before leaving on the mirror.

When you turn right you can see a big dining room with an entrance to one big balcony.
I stay there watching TV for long hours every weekend when I come back home from University.
Turning left I have a small but comfortable kitchen and a big court of andalusian style (because my parents are from Granada; my father, and Córdoba; my mother).

Continuing with my home route, I have a very large corridor where you can see my brother's bedroom on the middle, and at the end my big and pink bedroom.  ^^
Between our bedrooms we've got a big bathroom of a modern style.

Finally, turning left the corridor my parents have their big bedroom with a bathroom en suite.
Oh! I almost forget! They have inside their bedroom a small balcony; but I think that is my cat's property and not my father's because she stays long hours sleeping and taking sun baths on there.

Here you are one picture of the queen of my home, she's called Daisy (but not because of Donald's Duck wife, is just because of the translation into Spanish = Margarita, because I love flowers =) ).

I hope you have enjoyed my home route!! =)

Writting about Florida (Unit 2)

First we have to know before arriving Florida is that there are different things we can visit.
As I have searched on the internet, the most common atracttion is DISNEY WORLD!
Who has ever dreamed about meeting Mickey Mouse? There our dreams and fairytailes can become true!
Disney World is located in Orlando; so I've booked a hotel inside the park where we can stay per four nights at the "Disney Deluxe Villas". Here you've got the official website to see what we can do inside the park: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/

Another important thing we can visit is the Daytona Beach. Well, we are used to live in villages that have beautiful beaches; but I've never seen one that you can enter with your own car! It could be wonderful!
According with the plannig that I've done, we'll visit this on our fifth day of being there.

Finally, we can spend our last day visiting the Kennedy Space Center. It could be interesting to see how Nasa control the space; another land that we couldn't visit in any time. Furthermore, I want to see the Nasa Museum and to listen the explanation about what can they show us on there. Don't you think that we could learn such a new things? It would be lovely!

The travel agency told me that it costs around 1876€/person; but don't worry! The meal, and the flight are includied! =)

Can't wait to visit Disney World!!!
