When i was on the Queen Mary II there was so much to do. They had at least five swimming pools, they had three buffets, they had a teen program with scavenger hunts and time in the zone where they had video games, air hockey, foosball, board games and much much more.
The Queen Mary 2 is a grand ship with ball rooms and a large beautiful lobby. the ship has more than a thousand passengers with one staff for every 2 passengers which is the best service on the atlantic. every time yo turned a corner there would be at least one staff.
i met lots of people on the queen mary 2. i met 3 girls from scot land who were sisters named franchesca, antonia, __________. i met a girl from new jersey her name was katerina. my councilors name was mary and she's from toronto.
at dinner time we would go at 8:30 down to the Britannia restaurant and eat dinner at a specific table we were assigned. we were also assigned people that we would eat with. we ate with three people for most of the time the very first time we ate dinner there was also a couple but they only ate with us once. i quite enjoyed there company and the food. if you were a vegetarian like me or had any food allergies then you would be given a vegetarian menu and would order a day before.
our room was on deck 6 were the zone was. to get into the room you had a card that had your picture on it and you would slide it in the slot on the door to get in. the room had a bathroom, 2 beds,2 bed side tables, an arm chair, a desk with a T.V. on top, and a little table beside the chair. the room might seem like it has allot of stuff and you would assume it would be crowded but it wasn't every thing fit together and there was lots of extra room.
there were lots of different rooms on the ship there's a library, a movie theatre which was also a planetarium, a photo room, the zone, Britannia restaurant, 3 buffets, swimming pools, the kennel with the dogs and cats, a spa, a gym, and much much more.
some nights at dinner a photographer comes around and takes your picture than later you can buy them. that's what the photo room is. i liked going there to look at all the guest and then it was fun going around the ship and pointing out the people i saw.
there were many outer deck areas and it was fun on windy days to go up to the top the wind almost blows you away. the temperature out in the ocean wasn't as cold as i expected it was actually quite nice out some day but mostly always windy. one of the days it rained.
there were a couple things i wanted to do that i either never got around to doing or wasn't allowed. i wasn't allowed to go into the gym and the spa cost money but i've never been to a spa before and i wanted to. i never got around to going to see the dogs and cats in the kennel and i never got around to going on the bridge because it was always closed when i always went up there. i also never got around to going swimming which i thought was really really weird.
the queen mary 2 is and amazing ship and a wonderful experience. i wish i could go again it was so much fun.

statue of liberty assignment
THE STATUE OF LIBERTY AND ALL IT'S GLORY
Wednesday, August 21, 2007 BY:AASTE
I decided to do a project on the Statue of Liberty. The Statue Of Liberty is a national monument. On October 28th, 1986 she celebrated her 100th birthday. She was designed by Fredric Auguste Bartholdi.
The Statue was given to the United States over one hundred years ago by the people of france. she stands as the friendship established during the american revolution. It also grew to stand as freedom and democracy.
"There are 25 windows in the crown which symbolize gemstones found on the earth and the heaven's rays shining over the world." The seven rays of the statue's crown represent the seven seas and continents of the world. the height from the ground to tip of tourch is 151'1
The Statue Of Liberty is made out of copper. The thickness of the statue is the thickness of two pennies. The statue is hollow. The Statue Of Liberty is modeled after the wife of Fredric Auguste Bartholdi. The Statue Of Liberty was originally copper color but over time turned green.
The Statue was placed upon a granite pedestal inside the courtyard of the star-shaped walls of Fort Wood. The United States Lighthouse Board had responsibility for the operation of the Statue of Liberty until 1901. After 1901, the care and operation of the Statue was placed under the War Department. A Presidential Proclamation declared Fort Wood a National Monument on October 15th, 1924 and the monument's boundary was set at the outer edge of Fort Wood. In 1933, the care and administration of the National Monument was transferred to the National Park Service. On September 7, 1937, the area was enlarged to include all of Bedloe's island and in 1956, the island's name was changed to Liberty Island.
the statue of liberty is a major tourist attraction because like i said before The Statue of Liberty was a gift to the United States in honor of the friendship established during the French Revolution. The Statue of Liberty has become an American symbol of freedom and welcome to the immigrants who come to the USA looking for a better life.
The Statue Of Liberty is a statue that represents freedom, democracy and the friendship between the french and the United States Of America. It is also a huge tourist attraction.
