Valentine’s day is the day of love. Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February 14. The day is celebrated by many countries around the world, although it is not a holiday day. Handwritten cards, chocolate hearts and red roses are easy to find at any store these days. However, much about how vacations are a mystery. The first Valentine’s Day was in the year 496! Having a particular Valentine’s Day is a very old tradition, thought to have originated from a Roman festival. The Romans had a festival called Lupercalia in the middle of February – officially the start of their springtime. The ancient Romans may also be responsible for the name of our modern day love. Emperor Claudius II executed two men – both named Valentine – on Feb. 14 of different years in the 3rd century A.D. Their martyrdom was honoured by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day. Valentine means a loved one’s favourite or congratulations on Valentine’s Day or a gift or greeting that is sent or given specifically to a loved one on Valentine’s Day specifically like a greeting card sent on this day.

Last year, in a trip to America, I saw something very strange. In the northwest part of America there is a cool palett building. There’s also a paintbrush. The palett building is circular and it has 2 big rectangular doors which are made of glass. It is 150 metres tall! Inside there are 5 hotels. There are also offices, shops for paintbrushes and colours. You can learn about colours, you can go to the theatre and you can eat fast food too. I think it’s like a palace. Visit it and tell me.

One day Tim and Zack decided to go for a walk with their dogs, Lox and Fox. They put on their favourite T-shirts and their shorts and took their bicycles. They were cycling along the park when suddenly Lox started to run far away from them. Tim started to run too because he wanted to catch his little dog. Lox turned the corner at great speed. Suddenly Lox stopped. He had found a wallet. Tim opened it and there was an ID card. So the two friends decided to find the wallet’s owner but it was too difficult. The next day they started asking everyone about the wallet, but no one knew about it. At the end they entered a shop and asked the owner about the wallet. He told them that the wallet was his. At that moment they were very relieved. What a difficult day!

The National Marine Park of Zakynthos founded in 1999, is a national park located in Laganas bay, in Zakynthos island, Greece. The park is the habitat of the loggerhead sea turtle Caretta Caretta. It is the first national park for the protection of the sea turtles in the Mediterranean. The feeding of sea turtles with fruit and vegetables is the biggest threat. Giving the sea turtles unsuitable food makes them aggressive. So the National Marine Park is a protected area for them and not a zoo to feed or even touch them. In addition to turtles the park protects also seals, birds, frogs, iguanas, water snakes and mammals.
