Winter trip around a half of a quarter of the world ****in progress
Hello, this is our travel journal and also it's used
For Our research books for school.
It works like this: mummy is typing on the
Phone and me and Leo tell her about our
favourite things from our trip
DECEMBER 2022- SATURDAY - NAPOLI and
ROMA
Maxi:
We woke up rested. The morning was sunny and
warm. We had to put on our sunglasses to watch
out of the window the high speed trains down in
front of us. Our room is on the 14th floor. Far we
can see the sea, or it might just be a giant lake.
Oh yes, I remember! Last night there was a storm
far away on the sea and we could see the
lightening, but we couldn't hear the thunder. When
the lightening happened, we could see the water
and the mountains , and when they stopped then it
was very dark and we couldn't see anything.
The breakfast was very good and I loved it because
I made a bacon and mushroom bun. Mummy
brought to the table a different fruit. She googled it,
it said it was persimmon or a Japanese apple.
I am a proffesional egg cracker because
I peeled my boiled egg by myself. I am so excited
about going in the fast train to Rome.
Leo:
I am drawing at theToday we go in the high speed train to Rome from
Naples. I know the high speed train is going to be
so fast. It is the fastest in Europe after the
Eurostar! We are going to Rome, so the Italian
people say Roma, not Rome. Our hotel room in
HolidayInn is 1418.
Maxi:
We also played so much of Rock Paper Scissors
at the Colloseum. They had so many wild
animals there like, tigers and they made them to
fight people in thestadium. The middle of the
Colloseum looked like a maze and it has so many
rooms that are cages because they put the wild
animals in there and then they opened hole doors
in the floor so the animals ran outside but they
actually ran on the stage and they had to fight
eachother and fight gladiators.
SUNDAY, 18TH OF DECEMBER- NAPOLI
MAXI:Today is my birthday!! My favourite things of the
day are:
Definitely the football match and kissing mummy
on the cheek, and also my favourite thing is right
now at dinner at the restaurant. The breakfast was
very quick and we ate lunch at the Italian
McDonalds after going on a train up the hill
in Napoli. The McDonalds in Napoli tastes just like
the McDonalds in London and I liked that a lot.
The football in piazza in Napoli was good, but Leo
was cheating and it was funny because mummy
took a video and you can see how Leo is cheating.
Everything today gets a 10 put of 10, no 7s or 9s.
I am happy Argentina won the World Cup and it was
the best game of the century. Mbappe versus Messi but
Messi won! Papa says Messi is a cry baby buy mummy
says he's not. I definitely want to be a footballer when I
grow up, and I also want a football Tshirt with Messi on it.
But! this is really important: in Napoli there are
deadly plants that gave me bad bruises on my
neck. They have spikey leaves and are sharp and
if you don't look, you bump into them and they give
you really bad scratches.
Leo:
My favourite thing was drawing and the breakfast
table. My next favourite thing was taking the
DLR to the Garibaldi station,and the train, and the
tram. I also played football with Maxi and I won.
M: the breakfast was very quick, I need to write that
down so I can remember.
MONDAY 19 DECEMBER 2022- FLYING TO
ABU DHABI
Leo:
We are in Napoli lounge in the Napoli airport..
I love the food there and I love the trip. I am
drawing at the table in the lounge. I am drawing the
wizzair seat.
Maxi: My favourite thing until now is coming to the Napoli
lounge at the airport and drawing a Godzilla in my
research book.
Maxi:
In the Wizzair flight to Abu Dhabi I sat with mummy
and Leo was with papa. I played Minecraft
on mummy's phone and I coloured my spiderman
colouring book.
We got a huge taxi from the airport! We had an
awesome buffet dinner with rice, bbq chicken,
chicken corma, and I forgot what else. The room is
OK, but my favourite thing is there's so much space
to play football.
I scored from my tries and even scored with a head
kick. Papa slept with us because Leo was scared to
sleep by our own. Mummy was very hard to touch
I mean grumpy not to bother her.
TUESDAY, 20TH OF DECEMBER -in the morning
in Abu Dhabi
Leo: I like Napoli better than Abu Dhabi. The hotel
room was different and better. I liked the
watermelon at breakfast, but everything as better
in Napoli.
Maxi: Today we are going to Dubai!!! And to
Atlantis, the biggest water park in the world. Papa
showed us thepicture of the hotel. We are taking a
taxi to Dubai. Mummy is always late, she is still at
the breakfast drinking her coffee and we went with
Papa to the room to get ready for Dubai. I keep playing
football with Leo in the room and
my kicks are getting so much better!!!!
DUBAI -in the afternoon
Leo: The hotel is the best! There are fish at the hotel reception! The first thing we are doing is
snack time in the lounge, and I am eating watermelon and picking the seeds off it.
We will go next to the the aquarium. I think in the water there will
be sharks, fish, and big fish and medium sizes fish. My favourite
bit of the day has been having breakfast at the Abu Dhabi
Hotel. But this hotel now is called the Althantis Hotel. The
hotel room has open and closing doors and from the balcony
I can see the Burj Khalifa, the monorail, the waterpark, and
the Sea.
Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, and the Shard
is the second, I think. I know because I saw this on Youtube,
I am sure it's true! Maxi: I really love this hotel! We can see
the Burj Khalifa from the balcony and also we can play so
much football in the room.
WEDNESDAY, 21 DECEMBER 2022 - AT THE
BIGGEST WATER PARK IN THE WORLD and AT
THE HELICOPTER RIDE
Leo: I didn't like when my head was dropped in
the water because papa came in my boat and I slid in
the water because is is a grown-upand it broke the boat.
I loved the part when the waves were dripping on me
during the family ride!
Maxi: I liked the floating river and especially that there
was a big pirate ship with spraying water everywhere and
loads of water traps, it was very suitable for me but not so
suitable for Leo, I challenged myself to go under the spilling
water from the big bucket on the roof of that pirate ship and
I loved it so much, so I did that a lot
of times.
THURSDAY, 22 DECEMBER 2022
Maxi: I don't want to leave the atlantis hotel, home
to the biggest waterpark in the world. This morning
I had a bath and watched TV at the same time. It was
very relaxing. We are taking a taxi to the burn Khalifa and
having lunch there.
Leo: My favourite thing about the morning was the
bath. I had a tummy ache in the bath, but it went away.

WEDNESDAY 28 DECEMBER
Maxi: Today I am tired. We played so much at the mall,
we had rides in the bumber cars and even Atharv was there.
We came back to Simi Bua's house to sleep here,
after we've slept for 2 nights at Nirvair's flat.
Simi bua's house is a flat, and she has another flat
downstairs where we sleep. In Bombay there are
so many flats and they have aircon, but also there
are lots of mosquitos so we can't leave the windos and the
doors open.
Today I drank coconut water straight from a coconut,
with a straw. It was so hot outside, I had to go
and sit in the car with the aircon.
THURSDAY, 29 DECEMBER - ELEPHANTA
CAVES
Maxi: I liked the caves, they are very very old
and from Hinduism. But I hated going up the
stairway of dread because mummy got distracted
and wanted to do lots of shopping. We had cucumber
sticks and water and Leo had mango strips and water,
it was very hot. Papa bought a gong for a soundbath
for mummy and we banged it and did some
mediitation in the flat in the night and we practiced
how to hit it. I hated the monkeys at the caves
because some were mean, but it was very funny when
a monkey opened a bag and stole a bottle of water
from someone, and also when they went into the bin
and took out so many snacks and were eating it
very funny, like my little brother. Some people
wanted to take photos with us because papa said
we look like we are very famous.
